Alonso tops Schumacher in Barcelona testing Wednesday
Fernando Alonso (on slicks) topped Michael Schumacher (on grooved tires) by nearly 1-second as F1 teams entered their third day of testing at Barcelona Wednesday.
With one hour to go Kubica went off in turn five due to a technical problem. The minor impact into a tire barrier caused some damage to the front suspension and front wing of the car.
