Day four of the AT&T Williams teams Jerez test and the team would have their final day of testing. Test driver Nico Hulkenberg had taken over from Nico Rosberg as the team continued with the development of the FW30.

NakajimaOn a day that was bright in the morning but overcast in the afternoon thankfully the teams did not have to contend with the the winds that hampered the teams testing on Wednesday not reappearing. The Williams team was able to make more use of the day and work through their programme.

Kazuki Nakajima would finish the day again in third with a best lap time of 1m:19.117. He would complete ninety laps during the day.

The team would see one of its drivers bring out the second red flag of the day when Nico would stop his FW30 at Turn seven seeing a fifteen minute red flag period.

Williams F1Technical Director Sam Michael commented: “Today we finished testing in Jerez, with Kazuki and Nico Hulkenberg on driving duties. We spent most of today on set-up work and it was Nico's first proper run in the FW30. Overall we have had a productive test and look forward to the next step in Barcelona next week.”.
