On a dry and sunny day the AT&T Williams team would commence their final three day test prior to the first race in Australia. Rather than join the majority of teams at the Bahrain circuit the Williams team moved to Barcelona after their recent Valencia test.

RosbergThe team focused on longer runs with the FW29 as well as testing aero upgrades for the race in Melbourne. At the end of the day Nico Rosberg would set the fastest time, 1m:21.624, finishing ahead of team-mate Alexander Wurz.

AT&T Williams Test Team Manager Dickie Stanford commented: “Nico tested the Melbourne aero upgrade today and then spent the rest of the session carrying out long runs. He completed a full race distance, together with pit stops and refuelling. Alex, meanwhile, worked on mapping and set-up tests. Both Nico and Alex will continue here tomorrow in preparation for Australia.”
