Weather conditions changed this afternoon in Jerez with rain appearing twenty minutes before the end of the session. With track conditions relatively different from this morning, lap times were slower and consequently Kamui Kobayashi's impressive morning lap time remained the fastest of the two-day session.

Once again, it was the DAMS driver who was the quickest this afternoon with a 1:25.071, ahead of Nico Hulkenberg who was never out of the Top 5 during his two days at the wheel of the ART car.

Third this afternoon was Davide Valsecchi who confirmed his good form for Durango. Also confirming his competitiveness was Charles Pic in the second ART car, finishing the session in fourth place a clear three-tenths ahead of the more experienced Roldan Rodriguez (Piquet).

Jérôme d'Ambrosio was next up, ahead of newcomer Edoardo Mortara (Arden), Diego Nunes (Campos) and Luca Filippi (Racing Engineering). Andreas Zuber completed the Top 10 at the wheel of the Super Nova car. ART Grand Prix and DAMS were the only teams to have both of their cars in the Top 10 this afternoon. This concluded the two-day test session.

The teams will gather again in two weeks time at Le Castellet, on November 11th and 12th for the last test session of the year.
