Junqueira again on top at Sebring

After taking a rest day on Tuesday to ensure his return to the cockpit on Monday had no ill-effects, the Brazilian posted the fastest time of the week, with Giorgio Pantano equalling his performance.

"We had a very good test," said Junqueira. "The Newman/Haas team did a great job preparing the car and I feel very comfortable. I'm really happy to be back driving the car and I can't wait until my next time testing."

Tonis Kasemets's day didn't go as well as he had hoped and he hit the concrete wall after spinning within an hour of the track opening for practice.

The Mi-Jack Conquest team repaired the damage to the car but Kasemets was limited to just a handful of flying laps.
