[Savage Bliss 0]

Four drivers were in action at the Vallelunga circuit near Rome on Tuesday, as testing resumed ahead of the forthcoming San Marino Grand Prix. Anthony Davidson topped the times for Honda, finishing two tenths clear of Ferrari counterpart Marc Gene.

Davidson and team mate James Rossiter completed 120 and 132 laps respectively around the 4.085km Italian circuit, as they concentrated on chassis and tyre work focused on the upcoming European races.

At Ferrari, Badoer used the team

Michael Schumacher set the fastest time on the second day of testing at Vallelunga in Italy.

Don 't worry mates..the old german set the fastest time mostly because of changeable weather conditions..impressive stuff however..if Ferari will be on the pace in Imola as

they seem to be there will be no hope to challenge them even for renault..we just have to hope that their engines will break down

Honda are always fast in testing and qualifying - but not as fast in the race when it counts!

I hope Red Bull are going to get this new engine for Imola. But knowing zferrari they are more likely to give Red Bull a engine thats 3 months old.

Since neither finished the race (what a coincidence) I *think* they can change both engines without incurring a grid penalty.

If you fail to finish a race, you can run the next race with a new engine.
