World championship leader Lewis Hamilton topped the timesheets on the final day of testing at Monza on Friday.
The McLaren driver set a best time of one minute 22.967 seconds at the Italian circuit to edge Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen into second by four tenths of a second.
Giancarlo Fisichella achieved a suprise third, with his Force India VJM01 coming in two thirds of a second off Raikkonen’s time - and merely two thousandths of a second ahead of Kazuki Nakajima aboard the Williams FW30.
The Red Bull racer handled by David Coulthard finished faster than Fernando Alonso’s Renault R28.
Sebastien Bourdais set the seventh-best lap at the controls of the Toro Rosso STR3, with Timo Glock’s Toyota in eighth.
BMW Sauber’s Robert Kubica did not get as much time on the track as he wished for after suffering time-costly repairs, which were followed by electrical issues later on.
