Mark Webber was not giving a large amount away after posting the quickest time on a rare dry day of testing at Jerez on Friday. The Australian topped the timesheets for Red Bull courtesy of a quickest lap of 1:19.299, beating second placed Fernando Alonso's Ferrari by over eight tenths of a second.
With Red Bull having rolled out its car in Jerez after launching the RB6 in the pit lane last Thursday, this Friday proved to be the first proper day of dry running for the Renault-powered machine, which Webber took over from team-mate Sebastian Vettel for today and tomorrow.
"We're certainly showing some good form in terms of reliability but we always need to work on performance - you never know what the other teams are doing," double race winner Mark said on Friday evening.
"We're in a good position at the moment to build up to the first race - it's close but there's also quite a way to go, as other teams have no doubt planned developments for Bahrain. We're doing the work we need to do, in order to understand the car more."
