Toro Rosso tests STR5 at Imola

Toro Rosso on Tuesday gave its 2010 car one final track outing before next weekend’s season opener in Bahrain.

The Ferrari-powered STR5 circulated in pleasant weather at Imola, formerly the long-time host of the San Marino grand prix.

Imola, whose full title is the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, is located just a short drive from Toro Rosso’s Faenza factory in northern Italy.

In front of a few hundred spectators, both Sebastien Buemi and Jaime Alguersuari took turns at the wheel of the car.

"Although the track has changed it has not lost its qualities," said Spaniard Alguersuari. "I would like to have taken the car to its limit."
