James Calado was caught out by the cold tyres at Turn 1 as he left the pitlane, causing extensive damage to the front right hand side of the #51 Ferrari 499P in yesterday morning's third Prologue practice session.   Initially, the Italian team thought that a chassis change would not be necessary. Dallara staff - who are responsible for this one - went to the site to check that the monocoque had not been affected and would be reusable.   However, as a precautionary measure, the manufacturer could decided to reassemble the racing mechanics on the test chassis, which was also present on site.
