German Schumacher continued his preparations for the San Marino Grand Prix as he worked on tire and aerodynamic settings. He completed 104 laps with a best time of 59.071 seconds.

Test driver Badoer was back in the F1-2000 as he worked on electronic solutions, which will be permitted when traction control is allowed in the Spanish Grand Prix later this month.

Italian Badoer performed 10 practice starts during his 32-lap run-out as he posted a fastest lap time of one minute and 00.283 seconds. He also performed 15 laps in the F2001 with a best time of one minute and 00.203 seconds.
