Barcelona Test I: Gallery – Day 4

The final day of the first test at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya was the day Formula 1 teams tested on the intermediate and wet tyres for the first time.

Due to hot temperatures, drivers soon stuck on the slicks and continued with their usual programmes.

Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen topped the timesheets ahead of Red Bull’s Max Verstappen and Renault’s Jolyon Palmer.

Mercedes suffered an electrical issue in the morning which meant Lewis Hamilton was unable to complete any laps in the W08.

After four days of productive testing, the teams will be back in action on March 7 for four more days on track in Barcelona.
