Arden GP2 racer Buemi gets his day cut short
|
It was 18 degrees and sunny in Montreal, Canada today, but at the Le Castellet Circuit where teams switched to running to a circuit supposedly reproducing elements of the track that hosts the Canadian GP in three weeks time, it rained heavily.
So heavily in fact that Red Bull Racing cut short it’s testing, as did the majority of other teams.
Red Bull Renault test and reserve driver, Sebastien Buemi was charged with the final day of running and was less than happy to see the wet weather set in.
“It was very frustrating, because I have not had much mileage in a Formula One car so far this year, so I was looking forward to today," the Swiss racer stated.
"We got a couple of runs in dry conditions, but then as I was meant to be doing a long run test, the rain got much heavier and we decided the most sensible option was to stop running," he added.
