Pre-San Marino GP testing update: team by team.

The Formula One teams have been testing at several different venues since the Brazilian Grand Prix. Find out what each team was upto:

Ferrari: Massive five-day Fiorano test.

The Ferrari team started testing with Luca Badoer at Fiorano on Tuesday where he was using an F1-2000 chassis for three days, his principal priority being testing electronics in preparation for the Spanish Grand Prix. Schumacher joined on Wednesday to test an F2001 brought back specially from Brazil but his programme was interrupted on Thursday when he spun into a guard rail. Schumacher admitted that he was very impressed with Montoya's performance in Brazil. The team continued testing until Saturday at Fiorano and spent the final day preparing for the San Marino Grand Prix at Imola.

McLaren-Mercedes: Wet weather spoils Silverstone test:

Alexander Wurz was joined by Mika Hakkinen (Wednesday) and David Coulthard (Thursday & Friday) for tests at Silverstone, mainly concentrating on traction control development for the McLaren-Mercedes team. In addition the team did some more wet weather tyre testing for Bridgestone but for much of the time conditions were very bad with much standing water. "If we had tried to race in these conditions, the safety car would have been deployed," said Coulthard.

Jordan-Honda: Rain frustrates Silverstone test.

Wet conditions at Silverstone frustrated the start of the Jordan-Honda team's test on Tuesday where Ricardo Zonta posted the best time of the day on 1m 28.11s, the Brazilian being the only driver to manage a lap in semi-dry conditions. Jordan had originally planned to run an intensive tyre development programme, although after five laps this was disrupted when it became wet on one side of the circuit while remaining dry on the other. After the lunch break there was so much standing water on the track surface that - with not enough cars running to clear it - the team switched its focus to traction control software development in preparation for the Spanish Grand Prix. The wet weather continued on Wednesday when Zonta's Jordan aquaplaned off the circuit on its installation lap, fortunately without damage. The Brazilian ran a total of 31 laps all in wet conditions as the need for an unscheduled engine change prevented him from running later in dry conditions. Zonta managed a 1m 26.79s best while Jarno Trulli's race car arrived back later than anticipated from Brazil with the result that he could only run a preparatory ten laps in the afternoon, managing a 1m 25.92s best. No meaningful progress was achieved in continued heavy rain on Thursday.

BAR-Honda: A new chassis.

British American Racing tested at Silverstone in difficult conditions where their programme including shaking down a brand new chassis on Wednesday in wet conditions, but unfortunately Jacques Villeneuve got caught out by the track conditions and spun off, causing some damage. Olivier Panis tried both one of last year's and this year's cars, he and Villeneuve testing tyres and traction control systems as much as the conditions would permit.

Williams-BMW: Gene proclaims Williams FW23 "is the best F1 car I have ever driven" at Magny-Cours.

Marc Gene began a three day test programme for the BMW Williams team at Magny-Cours on Tuesday where he was using both an FW23 and an FW22B. He ran on wet tyres on a slippery track surface to start with and then switched to intermediates, eventually setting a best of 1m 15.972s, fastest of the day, in the newer car after tyre and traction control testing. Gene said: "The FW23 has dramatically improved since the first time I tried it a few months ago. Williams has done a fantastic job, especially on the aerodynamic side. That was the best F1 car I have ever driven and it doesn't surprise me what Juan Pablo and Ralf could do in Brazil last week." On Wednesday Juan Pablo Montoya joined the programme, driving at Magny-Cours for the first time since testing an FW20 there in 1998. He did some aerodynamic testing and rain tyre testing, posting a best of 1m 25.021s in the FW23 while Gene continued tyre testing with the FW22B for a quickest of 1m 26.175s. On Thursday Gene set fastest time on 1m 15.699s in the FW22B with Montoya next on 1m 15.984s. A race simulation run by the Colombian was stopped twice with technical problems.

Sauber-Petronas (Ferrari): Three days at Magny-Cours.

The Sauber Petronas team ran a three day test at Magny-Cours this week with a single C20, the fifth chassis to be built. Kimi Raikkonen did the first two days in order to acclimatise himself for the French Grand Prix on a circuit with which he is unfamiliar, mainly concentrating on electronic systems testing. He also did some rain tyre testing on Wednesday. Nick Heidfeld took over on Thursday, concentrating mainly on an aerodynamic programme. He set a 1m 16.0s, third fastest on the day. He also tried a revised power steering system.

Arrows-AsiaTech: Herbert starts of at Magny-Cours.

Johnny Herbert resumed the Arrows team's testing programme at Magny-Cours on Tuesday with both an A21 development car and an Z22 at his disposal. After overnight rain he ran intermediate tyres to start with and ran the majority of the morning in the A21 carrying out electronic system testing. He switched to the A22 later in the morning and continued to try both cars throughout the day, with a minor excursion into a gravel trap bringing the programme to a slightly premature end. He managed a 1m 16.766s best after 74 laps. On Wednesday Jos Verstappen took over the A22 completing 54 laps with a best time on 1m 27.520s in mainly wet conditions. On Thursday Enrique Bernoldi took over and set a best time of 1m 16.605s.

Prost-ACER (Ferrari): Two cars at Magny-Cours.

The Prost-Acer team ran two cars at Magny-Cours this week with Gaston Mazzacane starting the programme while Jean Alesi joining in on Wednesday and Thursday. The drivers tested electronic software and carried out Michelin tyre tests. The team will also run two cars at the Silverstone test during the week following the San Marino GP.

Benetton-Renault: Slow start at Jerez.

Mark Webber began testing electronic software at Jerez on Tuesday in preparation for the Spanish Grand Prix at Barcelona. Unfortunately the Australian only managed two installation laps in the B200 test car before problems with a damaged rib caused him to abandon the programme in acute discomfort. On Wednesday Giancarlo Fisichella took over testing the B200 with Jenson Button getting behind the wheel of a B201. Fisichella ran a tyre test programme, setting fastest time of the day on 1m 22.713s despite minor engine and gearbox problems during the afternoon. Button managed 36 laps for a best of 1m 25.378s working on electronic systems and general set-up work on the B201, his quickest time beind 1m 25.378s. On Thursday Fischella managed a fastest of 1m 21.958s with the B200 during tyre tests while Button focused on B201 engine and traction control system developments with promising results.

Jaguar-Cosworth: Both drivers at Jerez.

The Jaguar Racing team went to Jerez this week where Eddie Irvine and Luciano Burti carried out aerodynamic and tyre testing in preparation for the San Marino Grand Prix, the team using both an R2 and an R1B development car. Burti concentrated on a new front wing aero package while Irvine did tyre testing and also tried an uprated version of the Cosworth CR3 V10 which may be used in qualifying at Imola. Irvine managed a 1m 22.761s on Thursday, 0.3sec quicker than his team-mate.

European Minardi F1: No testing - working at base.

Like Ferrari, Minardi was awaiting for its equipment to return from Brazil and only has three days to prepare for Imola. The next test will be at Mugello from 18-20 April.
