Catalunya Testing Day 3 (10/3)! - Sergio Perez fastest from all.

10/3/11,

Sergio Perez with his Sauber was the fastest driver in the track today.(10/3)!! Viva Sergio!!

The third day of the development testing of Formula 1 in Barcelona ended with a not particularly expected name to be on the top of the list of the time-periods. Sergio Perez, the driver of Sauber did today the fastest lap. The Mexican's 1:21.761 is the best time achieved so far in the Circuit de Catalunya and is lower than that which was recorded yesterday by Sebastian Vettel. Perez did this time period in a try of doing only 1 lap in the morning.

Shortly after Perez, Felipe Massa for Ferrari also made an effort but it was a 3 / 10 behind the Mexican and his time was recorded as the second best of the day. Massa, however, was by far the most active driver of the day and completed 132 laps, equivalent to a distance of two Grand Prix.

The Red Bull does not continue to take firsts as the previous days, and Mark Webber was limited to the third position. Rubens Barrichello was much luckier than he was yesterday, Maldonado, and with his Williams FW33 did more than 100 rounds, one of whom was the fourth fastest of the day. Michael Schumacher was fifth, with Merceces GP to test their upgrades on the car.

Renault has divided the day between Vitaly Petrov in the morning and Nick Heidfeld in the afternoon. Petrov afflicted by problems with KERS and did only 24 laps while in the afternoon Heidfeld scored the sixth best time period. The other group which distributed the day was Lotus but it was only theoretical since the morning, Jarno Trulli has just done 6 laps. Apart from the usual ... leak problem, problems were presented to the T128's gearbox and the Italian remained stuck in the garage. In the afternoon, Kovalainen was able to cover 40 laps and scored the seventh fastest lap time.

Adrian Sutil with Force India and Jaime Alguersuari with Toro Rosso focused exclusively on large distances and both completed over 100 laps without seeking the absolute time, so they are low on the list. Jerome D 'Ambrosio had a productive day with Virgin, covering 96 laps.
