Today started with snow and finished with rain and track running was limited to one installation lap for Robert. We made good use of the time doing set-up tests in the garage, but it is disappointing when this is all we can achieve during a day. Now we are looking forward to the final day of this first test and hoping we can get back onto our planned programme.
Today was a proper winter Testing session as the track was covered in snow most of the day. Not much running for Brendon, but we can end the third day of T01 with some positives anyway.
If the weather permits, the last day of Test 1 (Thursday) will be completed by both drivers, with Marcus Ericsson in the cockpit of the C37 until noon, and Charles Leclerc for the afternoon.
A very difficult day weather-wise, but it is the same for everybody and we tried to make the best of it. The early part of the day was extremely cold with a wet track, and we used this time with Sergey driving to carry out a range of aerodynamic surveys on each of the full wet, intermediate and dry tyres.
