Ferrari and Jordan conclude Paul Ricard test

NEWS STORY

Today (Friday), was the fourth and final day of testing this week at Paul Ricard.

Ferrari was on duty once again, represented by Michael Schumacher, while the Silverstone-based outfit had Tiago Monteiro and Robert Doornbos on duty.

Schumacher, taking over from Marc Gene, who drove on the three previous days, worked on the development of Bridgestone tyres, which was the entire focus of the test.

Two entirely different track configurations were used - 1C SC in the morning and 2C SC in the afternoon.

Jordan ran the EJ15B and an EJ15 fitted with 'B' components. However a problem with the car, means that it now looks likely that the EJ15B will make its race debut in Italy rather than Turkey.
