Jerez day 3 : Magnussen takes over at the top :
After Jenson Button was quickest on day two, the Brit's new team-mate, rookie Kevin Magnussen, topped the third day of pre-season testing at Jerez. Button was also quickest earlier in the session, his 1m25.030s the benchmark for much of the day before Magnussen set the pace with a 1m23.276s late in the running - further evidence that the new McLaren MP4-29 is performing far better that its predecessor in the early stages. Magnussen and Button got through 52 and 40 laps respectively. Day three at Jerez was again marked by a number of red flags - and precious little sign of the Red Bull - with the likes of Ferrari and Mercedes once more joining McLaren at the top of the timesheets. Felipe Massa also took to the track for Williams and impressively set the second fastest time of the day behind Magnussen - a 1m23.700s - while getting through 47 laps. Lewis Hamilton completed an impressive 62 laps - the most of any driver - setting the third fastest lap time of 1m23.952s, with Button's earlier mark remaining good enough for fourth. Notably, the top four drivers were all Mercedes powered. Fernando Alonso also enjoyed a productive day for Ferrari, running through 58 laps and setting the fifth fastest time of 1m25.495s. Red flags caused by Alonso, Force India's Nico Hulkenberg, Adrian Sutil's Sauber, Jean-Eric Vergne's Toro Rosso and Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo once again punctuated the action throughout the morning and afternoon. Sebastian Vettel only managed 11 laps across two days of testing on Tuesday and Wednesday, but new recruit Ricciardo managed even less, completing just three laps before Red Bull packed it on once again. Force India also struggled, though Hulkenberg was able to get through 17 laps and set the sixth fastest time. The biggest problems were once again reserved for the Renault teams , with Caterham's Robin Frijns joining Ricciardo on the sidelines for most of the day. Only Vergne managed to set a lap time in a Renault-powered car, though the Toro Rosso also caused two red flags while getting through 34 laps. Sutil managed to complete 30 laps, though like Vergne his pace was way off the frontrunners. Marussia's new MR03 finally made its first appearance later in the day, with Max Chilton taking the wheel and completing a successful installation lap - if not a flying lap. 1. Kevin Magnussen - McLaren MP4-29 - 1:23.276 - 52 laps 2. Felipe Massa - Williams FW36 - 1:23.700 + 0.424 - 47 laps 3. Lewis Hamilton - Mercedes GP W05 - 1:23.952 + 0.676 - 62 laps 4. Jenson Button - McLaren MP4-29 - 1:25.030 + 1.754 - 40 laps 5. Fernando Alonso - Ferrari F14 T - 1:25.495 + 2.219 - 58 laps 6. Nico Hulkenberg - Force India VJM07 - 1:26.096 + 2.820 - 17 laps 7. Jean-Eric Vergne - Toro Rosso STR9 - 1:29.915 + 6.639 - 30 laps 8. Adrian Sutil - Sauber C33 - 1:30.161 + 6.885 - 33 laps 9. Daniel Ricciardo - Red Bull Racing RB10 - no time - 3 laps 10. Robin Frijns - Caterham CT05 - no time - 10 laps 11. Max Chilton - Marussia F1 Team MR03 - no time - 5 laps Kind Regards Shaky-Schumi |

Jerez F1 test ,day 2 : Jenson Button and McLaren fastest, Renault in trouble :
Jenson Button's McLaren topped the second day of pre-season Formula 1 testing at Jerez, as the Mercedes-engined teams demonstrated an early advantage in 2014. Button topped the official wet-weather running in the morning, despite the MP4-29 not having appeared at all on day one in Spain . The track dried after midday and drivers switched to slick rubber. Button then swapped fastest laps with the Force India of former team-mate Sergio Perez. The McLaren was on top when Perez stopped at Turn 1 and brought out the day's second red flag, the first one having occurred when Sauber's Esteban Gutierrez spun into the gravel at Turn 5. After the smoking Force India had been removed, Nico Rosberg's Mercedes, day one pacesetter Kimi Raikkonen (Ferrari), and the Williams of Valtteri Bottas all usurped Button's times. Each had their time on top of the timesheets, but after a third red flag in the penultimate hour - caused by Marcus Ericsson's Caterham stopping - Button recorded a 1m24.165s on Pirelli's medium tyre. Raikkonen ended up second with a 1m24.812s, while Bottas achieved a 1m25.344s on the special Jerez hard rubber to be third fastest with the FW36. Perhaps more eye-catching, though, was Rosberg's day. Although he ended up only fourth, with a 1m25.588s on the normal Pirelli hard, the Mercedes driver was the only man to complete long runs, twice making it into double figures between pit visits. He was able to lap consistently in the 1m27s and 1m28s on his final long run, which lasted for 24 laps. His ultimate tally of 97 laps compared favourably with pacesetter Button's 43 and Mercedes ended the day by using flow visualisation paint on the rear of the W05. Perez ended up fifth, well clear of Gutierrez, who never bettered 1m33s despite completing over 50 laps. The Renault-engined teams struggled with a suspected energy store issue. Caterham's Ericsson managed the most laps with 11, but his best was nearly 14 seconds slower than Button. Red Bull gave up running altogether after Sebastian Vettel had managed a handful of laps early on, while Toro Rosso failed to make it out at all. The only other team scheduled to run at Jerez, Marussia, did take delivery of its car at the end of the afternoon and hopes to run on day three. 1. Jenson Button - McLaren MP4-29 - 1:24.165 - 43 laps 2. Kimi Räikkönen - Ferrari F14 T - 1:24.812 + 0.647 - 47 laps 3. Valtteri Bottas - Williams FW36 - 1:25.344 + 1.179 - 35 laps 4. Nico Rosberg - Mercedes GP W05 - 1:25.588 + 1.423 - 97 laps 5. Sergio Perez - Force India VJM07 - 1:28.376 + 4.211 - 37 laps 6. Esteban - Gutierrez Sauber C33 - 1:33.270 + 9.105 - 53 laps 7. Marcus Ericsson - Caterham CT05 - 1:37.975 + 13.810 - 11 laps 8. Sebastian Vettel - Red Bull Racing RB10 - 1:38.320 + 14.155 - 8 laps 9. Daniil Kvyat - Toro Rosso STR9 - no time - 0 laps Kind Regards Shaky - Schumi |
