The penultimate test of the winter came to a close in Jerez de la Frontera yesterday  day.Even though the 2009 season hasn't even started, Red Bull Racing nominated this fifth day of the test to evaluate Bridgestone's 2010 season tyres.

Unfortunately, the weather yet again played its part and because of rain in the morning, Mark Webber didn't start running until noon. Overall, this has been a reasonably productive week, with Sebastian and Mark racking up around two thousand kilometres, despite the poor weather.

Now, all that stands between the teams and the opening round in Melbourne is the final dress rehearsal in the shape of one last test session which starts at Barcelona's Catalunya circuit, this coming Monday, 9 March.
