September 19 was scheduled for the Toyota Panasonic car racer Ralf Schumacher and he continued the three-day test up to this day. The test is set in preparation for the future battle of the team against Japan, Brazil and China during the Japanese Grand Prix which is going to happen at the revamped Fuji Speedway. Schumacher continuously tests his skills to perfect every move on the upcoming race. Just like an Acura antenna, the news is also available on the official website of Toyota.
Although he encountered several hindrances on his tests, he still managed to finish 79 laps from the different set ups he tried. Jarno Trulli will be the racer practicing tomorrow after Schumacher’s final day. Trulli will be practicing the specifications before he tries to race on the final day in Japan. Schumacher was able to attain these results:
Chassis: TF107/06
Best Lap Time: 1min 21.608s
Total laps: 79
Total distance: 349.417km
He said, "We have tried a lot of things on the car today and by the end of the day we had made progress. We had a couple of small delays due to car issues but nothing major. The stability and balance was difficult early in the day but we made some changes to the mechanical set-up and achieved a more workable balance."
Moreover, he added, "I was then able to do some aerodynamic comparison work in the afternoon. Our test here has helped us prepare for the Japanese Grand Prix and now I am looking forward to racing at Fuji Speedway."
Test Team Manager Gerd Pfeiffer was also quoted by Motorsport saying, "Ralf’s programme was basically a continuation of the work Franck started yesterday but we had a couple of small delays due to mechanical issues. In the morning we were working mainly on the mechanical set-up aimed at improving traction and in the afternoon we did some aerodynamic comparisons and gathered more data. Jarno will conclude the programme tomorrow and we will then make some decisions for the end of season races."
