Programme
Persistent wet weather hampered running for the majority of
teams at Portimao. With much to be risked by running in the slippery
conditions, the test team conducted a minimal on-track programme
today, using a 2008-spec rear wing as a precautionary measure to
increase downforce during the runs. Despite the weather, the team
carried out a number of systems checks on the MP4-24 and will
continue the programme tomorrow.
