Farewell 2008 - Today was the final day of testing this year and both Sebs had good days,with Vettel quickest at the end of the session.Both  drivers  worked on evaluating  various mechanical set-up changes in conjunction withthe  2009  specification  Bridgestone  slick  tyres  and  the  team  leaves  southern  Spain  withplenty of data and a good understanding of next season's rubber. The RB4s ran completelyreliably all day and overnight work on Vettel's car meant it was more to his liking today.

At the end of the day, Vettel said. "We've had pretty smooth running at this test and havecompleted  a  lot  of  mileage  before  the  end  of  the  year.  I  think  we've  done  everything  wecould here, learning about the tyres and next year's regulations and hopefully we will startnext year with a car strong enough to challenge the big boys."
