Sutil making progress for Spyker

Adrian Sutil took over driving duties for the second day of the Etihad Aldar Spyker Formula One Team's Silverstone test. The German covered 370km over the course of the day as his programme carried on from yesterday's solid opening work. Concentrating on brake system development, set-up for the British Grand Prix and tyre evaluation, the team made some good progress without any major mechanical problems.

Adrian Sutil said about his day of testing at Silverstone: "It was a good day without any real issues. The car was consistent without any mechanical problems, and we mainly worked on set-up for the British Grand Prix. The car was already pretty well set-up and we just worked on some small items with the tyres and the brake system. I am quite happy with the day, the balance seemed to be OK but for the Grand Prix obviously we still need to find a bit of time."

Giedo van der Garde and Christijan Albers will share the wheel tomorrow in the third and final day of the test.
