Sebastian Vettel has set the fastest time on the first of two days of testing in Barcelona. The Ferrari driver did a 1:23.220 on the soft compound, enough to keep Nico Rosberg behind. The leader in the championship was a tenth slower. Jenson Button from McLaren rounds up the top three. Williams experimented with a double rear wing, while Renault gained experience with the power unit upgrade. No red flags today.
