Williams will have done their stock price no harm with this test showing as Rubens Barrichello pulled out the fastest time in Jerez. The testing regime doesn&#8217;t really allow for a comparison, we all saw what Sauber did last year in the pre-season &#8211; and look where they are again.
The headline times don&#8217;t tell the whole story as the big teams seemed to set the most consistent fast times with Red Bull and Ferrari looking the strongest of those. McLaren may have to play catch up yet again, if only they&#8217;d make it easy for themselves at the start of the year.
Mercedes seem in all sorts of trouble with issues with the car and not seeming like they have the pace, though again it is only pre-season and in F1 terms there&#8217;s still a long way to go until that first race.
Renault continue to evaluate drivers to replace Kubica who [...]]]></description>

With three out of the four pre-season tests being affected by bad weather the teams will be well prepared for damp conditions but they won&#8217;t have done nearly as many miles in the dry as normal. How is a cold damp Spanish circuit going to compete with Bahrain?
I would imagine that the teams will have a very good understanding of how the new tyres perform in changeable conditions but they won&#8217;t have a very good understanding of the wear rates in hot conditions. Valencia &#8211; the only dry test is a street circuit and so will have different tyre wear rates to &#8216;real&#8217; racing circuits and so it may effect the setup that the teams can run in the race.
The rates at which the engines burn fuel will also have been affected by the weather as the cars won&#8217;t have been able to push as hard around the circuits, this [...]]]></description>

The final 2010 pre season test is to begin in Barcelona today with all the teams that were at last weeks Jerez test present. The test promises to be more relevant than the previous ones, if only because of the weather. The teams have also had a chance to learn the cars and work on the setup so we should see some more comparable times.
Along with better weather the teams will be hoping that they have ironed out any technical gremlins that could restrict their running, Virgin most of all will be hoping that the hydraulic issues that dogged them at the last test have been sorted and they can get some proper long runs on the board.
Ferrari will be looking to reassert themselves too after not really making an impression into the last two tests, it&#8217;s important that they show they are capable of the times &#8211; especially to [...]]]></description>

With the weather in Spain still damp for most of the test and the teams request for a warmer location turned down everyone knuckled down to see what they could get done. Their efforts were rewarded near the end of the test with some dry running, with the dry days being right at the end of the test we can&#8217;t really compare the drivers as some of them never really got a dry track to drive on.
Team wise though we see that Jenson Button and McLaren take the top spot but that surprisingly Renault have come from nowhere to post the second fastest time of the whole test, I don&#8217;t know how consistent these times are but that&#8217;s fast for the Jerez tests, that must give some encouragement to them. Sauber still show in the top three confirming that they might be a good bet for some points this year.

The final day in Jerez and Jenson Button put down his claim with the fastest lap of both the Jerez tests, underlining that this year is not going to be easy for Lewis Hamilton at McLaren and that he intends to defend his title. 
Sauber again take one of the top spots re-enforcing the pace that they have shown so far through the tests, we should expect some good grand prix from them this season. Renault will also be pleased to have rounded off the test with a good time.
Red Bull and Williams will be disapointed to be that far down the times given their performance on previous days but then perhaps they weren&#8217;t going for it today.
Virgin will feel that they got another one over on Lotus today though they have still to put significant mileage on their car whereas Lotus racked up the most laps of anyone today [...]]]></description>

Day three of the second Jerez test was finally dry enough for decent running and all the teams racked up the laps with over 4000 km between the teams during the day. Red Bull took the top stop from Fernando Alonso in the Ferrari and Jenson Button in the McLaren.
With the improved weather and reliability of the cars (except Sauber today) the teams have cover many race distances &#8211; even the new guys. Virgin will be pleased to have beaten Lotus today in the dry and Williams will be pleased to stay in the top half on a dry day whereas Renault and Force India will probably be disappointed. At the sharp end it&#8217;s starting to look like it could be a Ferrari &#8211; McLaren &#8211; Red Bull &#8211; Mercedes battle for the title this year.
Times in full:
1. Mark Webber, Red Bull, 1:19.299, 115 Laps
2. Fernando Alonso, Ferrari, 1:20.115, 132 [...]]]></description>

The second Jerez got underway today at a damp track, the teams are frustrated at having to stick to the wet venue as their request to move the test somewhere warmer fell through. It seems some of the teams were more annoyed than others voicing the frustration though less official channels such as twitter feeds.
On track we saw the Red Bull finally regain the form of last season by topping the times ahead of the McLaren piloted by Lewis Hamilton. The times aren&#8217;t as quick as last week yet so the other teams could yet overtake them.
Toro Rosso and BMW Sauber put in another good show to confirm that their pace is good and they put their cars ahead of Michael Schumacher Mercedes. Ferrari took the third spot as they concentrate on setup work.
Williams didn&#8217;t have such a good day ending up bottom of the established teams and having some [...]]]></description>

Lewis Hamilton&#8217;s time on the last day of the Jerez test was the fastest of the four days and sets McLaren at the top of the timesheets, but Jaime Alguersuari&#8217;s Friday time netted Toro Rosso the second spot. Taking the best times from all four days makes for a much better comparison of the times than the day by day listings, the full listings are below.
As far as the teams go McLaren take the top spot but it&#8217;s teams that are associated with the middle pack that take the next set of places leaving Mercedes, Red Bull and Ferrari out in the cold. Marks must go the Toro Rosso and Sauber for keeping up those times and topping a day each too.
1. Lewis Hamilton, McLaren, 1:19.583
2. Jaime Alguersuari, Toro Rosso, 1:19.919
3. Kamui Kobayashi, BMW Sauber, 1:19.950
4. Adrian Sutil, Force India, 1:20.180
5. Rubens Barrichello, Williams, 1:20.341

The 2010 formula one pre-season testing regime is halfway now with the tests in Valencia and the the first Jerez test complete. The remaining testing includes another four day test at Jerez (17-20th February) and one at Barcelona (25-28th February). The teams will then have a couple of weeks to digest the results and ship out to Bahrain for the first race on the 14th of March.
