Williams Valencia Test Report: Day Three

4th February 2010

Sam Michael, Technical Director: Wednesday, with Nico, we worked on putting as much mileage as we
could on the FW32 and achieved over 500kms at the end of the day, bringing us to a test total of
1,213.5kms. We spent the three days working on set-up and long runs; the main systems on the car
are proving reliable and are cooling sufficiently. There are the inevitable minor teething problems to
resolve between now and Jerez, but it's been good to get out on track and start work with our new
engine partner, Cosworth.

Nico Hulkenberg: We covered a lot of mileage today, which is good and allowed me to get used to
the car, and my first impressions are all positive. We did a lot of long runs on heavy fuel loads which
have given us a good baseline, but we need to keep on working.
