Williams racks up most laps in Barcelona

25 February 2013

Williams completed the most amount of mileage at the Circuit de Catalunya last week, despite the fact that it was the only team debuting a brand-new car. Over the course of the four day test, Pastor Maldonado and Valtteri Bottas racked up 367 laps, putting the Grove-based outfit four ahead of nearest competitors Ferrari.

Sauber, who topped the mileage charts at Jerez, were next on the list in third, while Mercedes and Toro Rosso continued their reliable start to the year in fifth and sixth respectively. Red Bull endured a few more problems in Barcelona, hence their lower position of seventh, while McLaren were the final team over the 300 lap milestone.

Caterham amassed 11 more laps than Force India to finish eighth, while a series of early technical issues left Lotus at the foot of the standings along with Marussia.
