After three days of break, the F1 2015 will be back in action tomorrow for four days on the Montmelo track in Barcelona in Catalonia. The main novelty of this final test session before the teams head to Australia concerns Force India, who should put his VJM08 on track on Friday.

The other change is to be found on the side of McLaren, since if Fernando Alonso finally released from hospital after his accident last Sunday, the double Spanish world champion will not get back behind the wheel of the Honda-powered MP4-30, replaced by the Danish test and reserve pilot Kevin Magnussen. McLaren is expected to detail its precise program later this week with Button in action tomorrow.
