Webber sets the pace at Valencia

Webber, driving the new FW28 car, was the only man capable of lapping the Spanish track in less than 71 seconds, outpacing his nearest rival by over half a second.

Webber, who set his best time near the end of the session after doing long runs in the morning, worked alongside test driver Alex Wurz, who was fifth quickest in the second Williams.

Christian Klien showed the Red Bull team seem to have solved the cooling problems in their RB2 car by completing a total of 100 laps without any problems, the Austrian finishing as second quickest.

Test driver Robert Doornbos worked with another RB2 car, finishing in seventh.

The McLaren team tested their MP4-21 with the 2006 livery for the first time, with Pedro de la Rosa carrying out most of the work during the day. Juan Pablo Montoya only took to the track in afternoon and covered 50 laps as the team focused on engine work.

Tiago Monteiro was sixth fastest in the new Midland car, while test drivers Markus Winkelhock and Giorgio Mondini share driving duties in the hybrid machine. Mondini caused the only red flag of the day when he went off track in the morning.
