There were no soppy flowers or cards with pictures of kittens for our drivers on St. Valentine's Day, but Christian Klien got a very nice gift in the shape of the latest version of the RB2 car.

Chassis  2  was  fitted  with  the  aerodynamic  configuration  parts  it  will  use  for  the  first  race  of  the season, featuring a revised bodywork package. "We ran cooling configurations and also worked on chassis set-up," commented Technical Director, Mark Smith.

Running  the  older  version  of  the  car,  Robert  Doornbos  concentrated  on  set-up  work  and development of the car's control systems.

Klien  continues  in  chassis  2  Wednesday,  with  Doornbos  running  for  the  morning  in  No.  1  before handing over the controls to David Coulthard for the afternoon.
