True order will be known this weekend - Rampf

BMW technical director Willy Rampf says this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix will reveal the true running order in F1 after teams implement their first major in-season upgrades following last week's test at the Circuit de Catalunya. 

"I can't wait to see how things pan out in Barcelona because almost all the teams have been testing improvements to their cars here last week," said Rampf. "Everyone has made progress, but the key question is, how much compared to the competition? That's why it's set to be a very interesting race and one that will also point the way ahead for the coming weeks and months."

"We've been pretty happy with our improvements, so we should be able to keep up with the front runners as before," he added.
