Spring is on the way

40

Spring is around the corner in Spain, and after the resumption of pre-season testing at the Circuito de Jerez in Andalusia the F1 teams head a bit further north to Barcelona for the rest of February. Conditions were still cold at Jerez but the teams will be hoping for warmer weather to give more representative track conditions as they seek to further develop their 2015 cars.
