Programme:
First thing in the morning the team was waiting for better weather conditions,
and later in the afternoon lost running time due to technical problems. Despite
this the team still managed to carry out tyre testing and set-up work for the
next races. Robert still managed to complete 78 laps and his best time was the
second fastest of the day.
Although weather conditions where far from ideal, over the three days of
testing with Robert the team luckily completed most of its programme. As the
weather conditions could easily be the same for the race in September, the team
was able to learn a lot.
What comes next:
This was the final day of testing in Spa. The BMW Sauber F1 Team's next test
will be from July 24 to 26 in Jerez.
