Nick Heidfield has been testing out the tyres for pirelli‘s formula 1 and has been driving Toyota TF109 test car fitted with F1 PZero tyres.
For roughly 2 days he had been driving around Le Castellet in France, so that final analysis and evaluation could be completed.
Paul Hembery has stated “We’re very happy with the progress we’ve made so far, which actually puts us slightly ahead of where we expected to be at this point in time,” Hembery pointed out. “We worked through an initial development programme that has given us a useful insight into the performance of our prototype tyres under a wide range of conditions, corners and speeds. We’ve been hugely encouraged by what we’ve seen up to now, and that’s been helped by both Nick’s clear and precise feedback, as well as all the different possibilities afforded to us by the Paul Ricard circuit.”
