Hamilton has finished the penultimate day of testing fastest, and by 7 tenths from Felipe Massa.
However the Briton is still downplaying his chances of a title, ”I don’t think there is any need to be impressed. It is important to bring everyone back down to earth and realize we still have a lot of work to do.”
