Only in the final hour was it possible to fit dry weather tyres. The day in figures is as follows: 33 laps, the quickest in a time of 1.23.619.

The Scuderia's preparations for the Spanish Grand Prix, which will be held at this circuit on the forthcoming 27th April, continues therefore at Maranello with the analysis of all the data gathered at this test and with the shakedown of the two cars that Felipe and Kimi will use, taking place at the Fiorano Track on Wednesday 23rd April.
