Gene and Badoer finish testing for Ferrari

Wednesday was the third and final day of testing this week for Ferrari, working again at the Monza circuit. At the wheel of an F2004 M, Marc Gene carried out a technical programme centred on Bridgestone tyres. The Spanish driver covered 144 laps on the day, the quickest in 1'21"396.

Also at Monza, the new 2005 Ferrari 575 GTC Evoluzione took to the track for a development test in preparation for forthcoming Gran Turismo races. Brazil's Jaime Melo and France's Jean-Philippe Belloc took turns at the wheel.

At the same time, at the Fiorano track, Luca Badoer carried out the shakedown of the F2005 cars that the Scuderia will be using at Imola in the forthcoming San Marino Grand Prix.
