17th January - Nearly 200 laps for Fisi and Sato on day 2 at Valencia.


Fisichella finished just behind the McLarens.
Giancarlo Fisichella and Takuma Sato today completed heavy workload in what was a productive second day of a three-day test in Valencia for Jordan.

Dry and sunny conditions gave the drivers the opportunity to run the EJ11s for a combined total of 195 laps, with Fisichella recording the third fastest time of 1:13.94. Sato�s lap time of 1:14.87 was almost a second quicker than his best time yesterday and places him seventh in today�s time chart, fractions of a second behind 2001 race winner, Juan Pablo Montoya.

Both drivers carried out work on Bridgestone�s tyre test programme and Sato worked on development suspension geometry while Fisichella focused his efforts on weight distribution.

Tomorrow will be the final day of Jordan Honda�s test in Valencia, following which the team will return to their headquarters. Rumours suggest that the EJ12 might get its first run at a Silverstone test next week.
