In the afternoon Lucas Di Grassi took over the cockpit of the R29 from Ho Pin Tung and went on to complete a further 54 laps.

 "It was a productive day and good for me to get back in a current F1 car for the first time in almost a year. It felt quite different to drive this car with slicks but I quickly got used to it and the systems on the car. Our programme was focussed on looking ahead to 2010 so we were running with high fuel loads and doing quite long runs. The track conditions were not too bad, but I think it will be even better tomorrow so we should be able to complete some more important work." - said Lucas.
