Sepang Test 30:03:2007 Day Four
 

After having decided to extend their three day test to four the AT&T Williams team would see Nico Rosberg finish the day fourth fastest for Williams. Nico would complete over one hindered laps on a day that would see the afternoon testing hampered by rain.

The team also continued their preparations for the next race of the championship, including working on their improving their single lap pace following their disappointing qualifying performance in Australia. The team would continue setup work on the FW29 including cooling system checks.

AT&T Williams Team Manager Tim Newton commented: “AT&T Williams completed the four day test in Sepang with another day exceeding 100 laps bringing our total mileage for the four days to just over 2,100km. Nico worked through a program of set-up changes and cooling system tests in the morning, in the afternoon the rain gave us a chance to try both types of wet tyres and wet to dry set-ups. Everyone at the test has been working hard in hot conditions for the whole week, which will pay dividends at next weekend’s race.
