F1 testing has just ended it's first day in Barcelona. Jarno Trulli and Franck Montagny were developing the new Toyota TF107, hoping to put in some decent laps to get the car as competitive as possible before the start of the season. Trulli had a productive day, covering a Grand Prix distance on his way to the seventh fastest time.
Honda had another day of dialling in settings. Test driver Christian Klien finished 13th after 51 laps, while teammate Rubens Barrichello covered just 24 after stopping twice and going off once.
