Nelson Piquet junior set the fastest time on the final day of Formula One testing in Barcelona.
The Renault driver, who had tested for two of the three days as he worked on turning his so far disappointing rookie season around, completed 112 laps and beat second-placed McLaren test driver Pedro de la Rosa by 0.4 seconds.
Having been quickest for Ferrari on both Thursday and Friday, Luca Badoer was third but the Italian test driver was satisfied overall with what he had accomplished during the week.
He said: "It was a generally positive test. We were able to work continuously and without any major technical problems.
"We saw interesting results from some new components, which might prove useful in the forthcoming races.
"On top of that, we also got through everything we had planned in terms of engine reliability work."
Mark Webber (Red Bull) and Timo Glock (Toyota) completed the top five while Nick Heidfeld was only sixth-fastest for BMW.
