2013 Barcelona: McLaren Formula One F1 Sunday Test Recap
Driver Jenson Button Location Circuit de Catalunya Track length 4.655km Laps/km 122/568 Best laptime 1m 21.444s
Programme A positive end to three weeks of testing in Spain. Jenson concluded the 12 days’ running with a productive 122 laps of the Circuit de Catalunya today.
At the conclusion of the test, sporting director Sam Michael said: "After completing over 5,000 kilometres, through dry and wet conditions, we have collected plenty of data from MP4-28A. A large part of winter testing is taken up with methodically working through many systems checks and verifying that the correlation between design and track is solid - that’s more important in modern F1 as track testing opportunities are so limited.
"A special thank-you to everybody put so much effort into the testing program. We’re all really looking forward to the first race in Melbourne in two weeks - from the laptimes we’ve seen the season is going to be incredibly close!"
What’s next We return to MTC, prep, and pack for Melbourne.
