F1 pre-season: Barcelona test schedule

Michael Schumacher, Mercedes GP

The final Formula One pre-season test window opens at Barcelona later tonight (Australian time) and will run until Sunday. So far the form at Valencia and Jerez has played out as expected, with the major players of Ferrari, McLaren, Red Bull and Mercedes GP all looking solid. Although Ferrari probably look the strongest at this stage. Some of the lesser lights have also shown some very good pace, namely BMW Sauber and Toro Rosso.

Inclement weather has robbed teams of precious dry track time during testing, especially at the two Jerez sessions. However the forecast for Barcelona this week looks reasonably good. Sunny days are predicted for Thursday and Saturday, while light rain is expected on Friday and Sunday. You can checkout the schedule of who will be driving when after the jump.

UPDATE: Mark Webber showing great pace in the RB6 during the morning session—quickest by over one second. Don’t forget you can follow the action live on twitter and autosport.com.

Lotus is the only company letting their teat driver drive. His contract must be worth a lot to the team!
