Ferrari complete Mugello test

The Ferrari team on Thursday completed their four-day testing session at the Mugello circuit in Italy

Felipe Massa took over from teammate Kimi Raikkonen at the wheel of the F60, as the weather finally allowed the team to carry out significant work.

Massa was able to run with dry weather tyres from late in the morning, and the Brazilian covered 103 laps with a best time of 1:23.981.

"I am pleased with the way these past days have gone," said Massa. "Finally today, we were able to test the car in the dry continuously.

"First impressions are positive, even if it is obviously too early to say what level we are at, partly because we had no competitors here to compare ourselves with.

"However, if I was asked to give a verdict on this test, I would score it a strong eight for reliability, given that we have covered over 1500 kilometres.

"It's true a lot of that was in the wet, but given the conditions experienced in Portimao, I think the decision to come to Mugello was the right one."
