McLaren's Lewis Hamilton was fastest in yesterday's final Formula One pre-season testing session when the likely rivalries for the coming championship finally fell into place.
Ferrari and Red Bull had looked to be ahead after previous tests but Hamilton showed McLaren were fully competitive by setting the fastest lap of one minute 20.472, the quickest time in Barcelona.
Red Bull pair Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel were second and fifth yesterday with Ferrari's Felipe Massa third quickest.
Mercedes are generally considered by the paddock to be the fourth fastest at this stage and seven-times champion Michael Schumacher backed up the assertion by setting a quickest lap just short of Vettel's best.
