De la Rosa starts Pirelli testing tomorrow

Pedro de la Rosa will start his Pirelli test programme at Valencia tomorrow, having taken over the job from Nick Heidfeld, the man who replaced him at Sauber.

Romain Grosjean filled in at the most recent test at Monza, and remains involved with Pirelli on GP2 development. De la Rosa will run for two days in Spain, focussing on compounds, after earlier tests revolved around constructions.

“I’m really looking forward to it,” Pedro told this blog. “I’m happy to learn with them and improve the tyres. I can give them my experience, and that’s what they needed. I’m really, really happy that this deal came through. I will learn a lot and think I will also give quite a lot.”
