HRT to miss Saturday testing too

launched 2011 car ahead of the season opener in Australia.

The F111 was rolled in the Barcelona pit lane on Friday but not tested due to some parts getting stuck at the airport in customs. Late on Friday evening the Spanish team said it would not run on Saturday - the final day of pre-season testing - either.

"Unfortunately we could not get the dampers out of customs," said team boss Colin Kolles. "The result of this is that we can´t run tomorrow [Saturday]. This is life and we will overcome this problem."

With teams' freight heading for Australia over the coming weeks it is unlikely the car will run before the first practice session at Albert Park.
