Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel matched his team mate Mark Webber’s Tuesday success by setting Wednesday’s fastest time as this week’s final pre-season test at Barcelona’s Circuit de Catalunya continued. Vettel posted a best of 1m 21.865s to beat the second-placed Toro Rosso of Sebastien Buemi by half a second and Webber’s Tuesday time by almost seven-tenths.
