MARTIN WHITMARSH
"The primary focus of the test this week has been pushing forward
with the aerodynamic programme. There was some disruption to this on
Wednesday and Thursday due to the windy conditions. However the test
team have been able to complete the proving process on a range of
aerodynamic components.
The Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team has seven track days remaining
before the cars depart for Melbourne on 6th March, incorporating full
test sessions and some straight-line work. Naturally there will be a
focus externally on the multi-team test at Barcelona in the final week
of February. It will be the first time in a few weeks that all the
leading teams will be on the same track. Whilst this will give us the
possibility of a more comprehensive comparison, we will nevertheless
focus on our own test programme rather than chase times. The real
litmus test of performance will take place in Australia."
