Pirelli end test a day early due to Vettel crash

Pirelli had to cut short a Formula One wet tyre test at Ferrari's Fiorano track in Italy on Friday after four times world champion Sebastian Vettel crashed into barriers the day before. A Pirelli spokesman said the modified 2015 Ferrari had been badly damaged in the crash on the artificially-soaked circuit outside Maranello and spare parts were not immediately available. Reports in Italy said Vettel had suffered some bruising but was otherwise unhurt. The two-day test of the new wider tyres had been scheduled for just one car, with Red Bull and champions Mercedes also due to be involved in future weeks.
