BAR have made progress in testing - chief

David Richards enjoys a coffee

BAR team chief David Richards has played down his team's disappointment in the British Grand Prix but looked forward to the German Grand Prix after he claimed his team made good progress in testing last week at Jerez.

"We took away many positives from Silverstone, despite what, on the face of it, was a fairly average result for us - particularly at our home Grand Prix," said Richards. "The test team have made good progress with our latest developments in Jerez this week and with seven races remaining we have to maintain every ounce of the momentum that has brought us so far already this season in order to pursue a top three place in the Championship. Personally I'm hopeful that the German Grand Prix will mark a return to the podium for BAR."
