Bridgestone testing 8 new tyre specs!

Bridgestone are tesing as many as 8 new tyre specs this week/end, using the Ferrari, Sauber and BAR teams.Must admit though, i found the following quote rather amusing...

from www.f1racing.net

“All three of our teams currently testing are following the same tyre test programme, although they may not be testing the same tyres at the same time. For example, if one team tries a specification that doesn’t prove competitive enough then we will not ask the others to waste their time by trying it.

Just wondering, is Sauber and especially BAR don't find a tyre too competitive wether they will ask Ferrari not to test it?

Nicholas should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
If that happened Ferrari wouldn't have any tyres!

I don't think Max would allow that - the FIA rules are quite clear that all cars must race with 4 tyres
