It had been thought the HRT team would debut their car at the Circuit de Catalunya on Sunday for its first run but it seems that has been delayed again.
The Spanish constructor will not take part in the test but will be debuting their car during a media filming day on Monday at the track, to try and gather as much data as they can there.
HRT have had a miserable winter, missing all the tests so far apart from Jerez were they raced with their 2011 car. The car initially failed the mandatory FIA crash test but soon passed them all.
They skipped the 2nd test to focus on the development and completion of the new car, but it seems they need a few extra days to get it sorted. Marussia also suffered a similar fait and had to by pass the 3rd test due to a failed crash test. They have been in F1 for 3 years now, and neither seem prepared for the season. It comes as a disappointment for fans of the team's but also shows the comparison between them and the other "new" team, Caterham, who have improved considerably.
