1. Fastest Times
Fastest times is a listing of the fastest time by each team at the eight tracks that have been used during winter testing. For each team at each track, the fastest time set during testing is listed first. This is then followed by the fastest time set during the November/December testing period, January testing period and February testing period. The fastest time is also highlighted in the period it was set.
Renault, BAR-Honda and McLaren-Mercedes head the times at the three main testing venues of Barcelona, Jerez and Valencia respectively. They tend to feature highly in all the testing, with Ferrari, Williams and Toyota feature inconsistently, Sauber sit near the bottom while Minardi and Jordan are at the bottom of the times.

2. Driver Days
Driver days compares the number of days each driver, and team, has driven during winter testing, with a driver day being counted for each driver that tests for a team on a day of testing - multiple drivers for one team on a day of testing mean multiple driver days. A total of 47 drivers have driven for ten teams in these tests during November, December, January and February, for a total of 523 driver days of testing.
Of the drivers that have taken part, Mark Webber did the most days, with 26, with teammate Nick Heidfeld next on 25, followed by Toyota teammates Ralf Schumacher and Jarno Trulli on 24. From the teams' perspective, BAR-Honda finished up on 82, ahead of Toyota on 79, seven ahead of Ferrari.

3. Driver Totals
The driver totals compared the total number of laps completed by each driver during testing, with the total number of laps broken down circuit by circuit. A total of 40166 laps were completed during testing in November, December, January and February. Nick Heidfeld led the way with 2190 laps, ahead of Takuma Sato on 2117 laps with Heidfeld's teammate Mark Webber third on 2054 laps, which is fairly evenly spread out. At the bottom of the table is a group that includes drivers that the teams are evaluating for possible further use as test drivers.

7. Tyre Wars
Finally, the battle of the two tyre companies. With Sauber switching to Michelin, Bridgestone have only three teams at their disposal while Michelin has seven teams out there. On top of this, Ferrari is the only Bridgestone team running at the top level, with Bridgestone also having the two lowest ranked teams on its books. This table reflects this, with Michelin's totals around five times Bridgestone's totals in the categories of total distance and total laps, and about four when looking at driver days. When looking at the averages, Bridgestone runners are more competitive, within twenty percent of the average running per driver day compared to Michelin.
This table is also listed in alphabetical order.
Manufacturer | km | Laps | Driver Days | Laps/ Driver Day | km/ Driver Day |
Bridgestone | 29705.845 | 6928 | 105 | 282.913 | 65.98 |
Michelin | 145262.906 | 33238 | 418 | 347.519 | 79.52 |
