Interesting that they have been trying Ohlins shocks as well as Supashocks, wasn't HRT the last runner of any note on the Ohlins till late last year & it didn't seem to do much for them?

So was that an actual proper test day for DJRTP? Or was it just a shake down of a new car (limited laps allowed) plus a test of a potential new driver (as I understand it a driver can be tested without using one of the precious test days.) I note Fabs drove a few laps. Perhaps that is allowable to set a car up, or check a cars settings, for the rookie? Is this a way of doing a little testing of car and parts without using an actual test day? If so it would have limited value as a rookie driver would not be anywhere as useful as an experienced driver in a normal test situation. Or has a full test day for one car been used up on a rookie driver?
If it was a proper test of car and team, you would surely make the most of it by having your lead driver in all day. And probably use both cars?

edit: and after I post the above I look at DJRTP's website / facebook and see it was a driver evaluation day. I wonder if notes were taken! ;)
