Lotus has confirmed in the last few minutes that due to a problem the team had this morning with the E20 chassis number 2 they have pulled out of this week's Barcelona test. Romain Grosjean only completed 7 lap's in the second chassis this morning before reporting a problem with the car.
Despite the fact the team was due to send chassis 1 to Barcelona for tomorrow's test that plan has now been scrapped. In a statement this evening the team said that both of the new Lotus chassis require modification. This is extremely bad news for the team especially for Kimi Raikkonen who was set to test the car on Thursday and Friday.
The team will be in attendance for the final preseason test in Barcelona next week.
