Christian  Horner:   "Unfortunately   David   suffered   a   trapped   nerve   in   his   neck yesterday,  so  we  took  the  precautionary  measure  of  giving  him  a  day  to  recover ahead of the final day of testing and this near to the start of the season. It was logical to   use   Sebastian   Vettel   to   continue   testing,   evaluating   various   important   pre- Melbourne developments. We're grateful to Toro Rosso for making him available to us today. All being well, David will be back in the car tomorrow morning."

Mark's  programme  focused  on  evaluating  some  new  development  car  parts  in preparation  for  Melbourne  and  his  day  was  therefore  mainly  data  driven.  Although some minor issues cost the team some time, valuable information was gained ahead of the first race in Australia.

Sebastian  quickly  acclimatised  himself  with  the  RB4,  and  focused  on  evaluating various set-ups, notching up 110 laps in the process.
