Trulli fastest on day 2 at Silverstone

Toyota driver Jarno Trulli was the fastest man out at the Silverstone circuit on Wednesday. The Italian was just ahead of Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen and Williams driver Alexander Wurz.

Wednesday was the second day of testing at Silverstone. Nine Formula 1 teams came to the British track for a three-day test session. The track had remained dry for most of the day until a heavy shower midway through the afternoon.

"In general it was a positive day even though it's difficult to judge comparative performance because it's always very windy here," said fastest man Trulli. "The morning went pretty well for us testing set-up and tyres and I felt pretty comfortable with the car. Then we change the suspension settings so we lost some time around the lunch break. After the rain in the afternoon we only had about a half an hour more of meaningful work."

It was a difficult day for Red Bull Racing driver Mark Webber. The Australian caused a couple of red flags thanks to problems with his car.

Testing will continue on Thursday.
