Testing at Silverstone, 29 May
Giancarlo and Takuma share testing duties at Silverstone

DHL Jordan Honda completed a second day of testing at Silverstone today, with Giancarlo Fisichella in the morning and Takuma Sato taking over testing duties this afternoon.

Fisichella completed 24 laps and set a quickest time of 1:25.04 and spent his day and a half at the Northamptonshire circuit focussing on brake work for Canada, tyre testing for Bridgestone, wet setup work, front suspension development and Honda engine mapping.

Sato took over late in the afternoon session after the car had been adjusted to his cockpit set-up and encountered changeable weather, however he managed to complete 17 runs and set a lap time of 1:24.91.  He began work on engine mapping, set up and systems software and he will continue testing tomorrow on the final day of the test.
