They say nostalgia is not what it used to be, but today David certainly enjoyed tearinground the Jerez track on slick tyres, as part of a Bridgestone evaluation for the 2009season.  He  commented  that  it  reminded  him  of  the  final  time  a  Grand  Prix  wasstaged here, in 1997. Bitter sweet memories no doubt, as this was the race where hewas politely asked to hand the European GP win to team-mate Mika Hakkinen.

Back  in  the  present,  the  day  went  smoothly  for  the  Scotsman,  who  was  secondfastest, as he completed an aero test and continued with chassis set-up work. It wasa less satisfying day for Mark Webber, who was at the wheel of the car fitted with2008 electronics. A couple of problems cost him quite a lot of track time.

Both drivers continue testing tomorrow, when they will swap cars.
