Williams wraps-up Jerez test

Nico Hulkenberg took over testing duties from Nico Rosberg today in Jerez with Kazuki Nakajima testing again in the sister FW29. Nakajima completed 57 laps with a best lap of 1:20.758s, ninth fastest, while Hulkenberg recorded a 1:24.023s best which was 13th best on the day.

Sam Michael, Technical Director: "At Jerez we concluded a three day test with all our drivers working on the reliability of the 2008 transmission. We also continued work on electronic set-up for the standard ECU. Next week we’ll be in Valencia with our new car."

Kazuki Nakajima: "This week’s testing was quite badly affected by the weather conditions. It was wet for most of day one and then for half of the session today as well. Apart from that, it’ s been a productive three days for us."

"I’ve tried out many new things on the interim car which will be transferred over to the FW30, but I still need to do some work to get everything right. We’re running the new car next week and I’m really looking forward to driving it for the first time."
