The final Formula 1 test of the winter has been moved to March 9-12 in Barcelona.
The additional test at the Catalunya circuit fills the gap left vacant by the cancellation of the planned March 3-6 test and March 11-13 grand prix in Bahrain, both of which were called off following political unrest in the country, although the race may yet be rescheduled for later in the year.
The championship itself now begins with the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne on March 25-27.
