Felipe Massa returns to dominate in Cheste

This season the test will be a game of cat and mouse. With these deposits as big game in the fuel loads will be on the agenda. Also like never going to let us know if they are loaded or not, they can attend the test will have to strain your eyes to see and let the tires after each run. But that for later.

On the second day of testing at Cheste, again the dominator has been Felipe Massa. The Brazilian and Ferrari are serious. With better conditions than yesterday’s, the Ferrari F60 F10 has improved in almost a second off his best time. Moreover, Massa was back to being the pilot who shot a round. Nothing more and nothing less than 124.

Again, the surprise has come on board and gray white fireballs Sauber. Kamui “Benito” Kobayashi set the second fastest time, seven-tenths better than that achieved by Pedro “Manolo” de la Rosa in yesterday. The Swiss think they are serious. Although there are doubts about the distance traveled in his runs and their fuel loads. They said in a commentary today that the rumors were saying that only Ferrari and McLaren were doing long runs.

Lewis Hamilton has taken over from Gary Paffett at the wheel of the new McLaren MP4-25. The World Champion 2008 was released in 2010 with the third fastest time on the track. McLaren have had a day filled with events and this may have prevented the British “go” at a better time.

Who has had a good day, compared with yesterday, it was Robert Kubica. Yesterday, the R30 seemed to inherit the ills endemic to the R29, but it seems it was a false alarm caused by a work focused on adapting the car. Today Kubica fourth with a best time of 1′12 “426, four tenths faster than Nico Rosberg and Mercedes W01 GP MGP. The German has “pinched “.
