Testing February 1st: Barcelona Day 12 01 Feb 2002

Antonio Pizzonia had his first taste at the top of the time sheets today, when he managed a 1.19.452 in his Williams FW23. He was the only driver for the BMW powered team on track, due to a shortage of engines.
Both Jaguar drivers were at the wheel of this year's R3, and Pedro de la Rosa proved the quicker of the two as they worked on aerodynamics and pit stop practice.

Takuma Sato had a heavy accident in his Jordan EJ11, but was able to get back out on track in the afternoon. However, he had another spin after the car's brake temperature rose rapidly and his rear wheels locked.

Jarno Trulli reinforced his team mate Jenson Button's glowing report on the R202, when he also praised the new car for its consistency and driveability. His time was especially good, considering that he was on a heavy fuel load.

"The whole package is very positive," he said. "At the moment I have a problem with my seat, as my head is hitting the headrest. That has to be corrected. I wasn't so happy in last year's car but even with the headrest problem this car is much improved.

"It is very consistent, it can consistently do the same things over and over again. It can generate more temperature than last year's car (in the tyres). There is a lot more to come on the aero side and the rear end of the car is so stable, so I am very positive and happy about it.

"Realistically it would be nice to be able to fight Sauber for fourth this season, the baseline of the car is there. We have to work on reliability, and I hope we get there!

"I am still finding it hard to get used to the tyres because Michelin have totally different characteristics to Bridgestone, and I just have to change my driving style. It is a matter of time. I really look forward to this season! "

Only Jaguar continue testing tomorrow.
