The Lotus F1 team confirmed today that they will return to Barcelona for the final four day's of testing starting tomorrow morning. The team were forced to miss last week's test with a chassis problem however the team are confident that the issue has been resolved. The team spent the last four day's working on a solution.
They will therefore join the rest of the team's at the Circuit Du Catalunya. The team said that the route of the problem was with the E20 chassis 02 and that this chassis is going to be used strictly as a spare and that that both Kimi and Romain will share chassis 01.
The team were able to get plenty of mileage on that car in Jerez, however the fact that they missed the test last week is a set back, however it is not a major problem.
I believe that the team will bounce back and hit the ground running. From the pace that both Kimi and Romain were setting in Jerez they will be back up to speed with the heavily revised E20.
In the past few minutes it has been confirmed that Romain Grosjean will be driving the E20 tomorrow and Friday wih Kimi Raikkonen taking over for Saturday and Sunday, he final two day's of testing.
I will be posting the latest times throughout tomorrow and the weekend.
