Zoom
Badoer handled the F2008 today

While every other F1 team is at the Jerez circuit in Spain, with the exception of Force India which will not be conducting on-track tests this week, Ferrari is moving ahead with its own programme at Mugello.

This morning, the final test session prior to the end of the 2008 season got underway; test driver Luca Badoer gave the F2008 its debut at the Tuscan circuit.

The day's programme included the development of some aerodynamic solutions aimed at the final four races of the season, along with some work on car set-up.

Badoer covered a total of 66 laps, the quickest in a time of 1:21.010.

Testing at this circuit continues tomorrow when Kimi Raikkonen takes over at the track.

At the same time, at Fiorano, Felipe Massa will carry out the shakedown of the cars that will be used in the Singapore Grand Prix scheduled for 28th September.
