The afternoon session was delayed for twenty minutes when Felipe Nasr caused a crash with Susie Wolff at Turn 5. Wolff was on an outlap, when Nasr, who was on a hotlap, was moving back onto the racing line in the braking zone after he stayed wide on the exit of Turn 4 so to overtake. The collision caused extensive damage to Nasr's car, including its rear wing which ripped off.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/31755/9721564/susie-wolff-was-involved-in-a-crash-with-felipe-nasr-during-her-outing-for-williams|title= Susie Wolff crashes out of Barcelona test after collision with Felipe Nasr|first=William|last=Esler|publisher=Sky Sports|date= 19 February 2015|accessdate=19 February 2015}}</ref> Afterwards, Wolff claimed that the accident, where Nasr came across with his rear right hitting her front left and leaving her car with a damaged front suspension, was "an unnecessary coming together."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.espn.co.uk/williams/motorsport/story/191763.html|title=Wolff blames Nasr for 'unnecessary' accident|work=ESPN F1|publisher=ESPN Sport UK|date=19 February 2015|accessdate=19 February 2015}}</ref> Nasr explained: "She was driving quite slow in front of me. As I did Turn Four I caught up. I saw her moving to the right so I thought she knew I was coming. I committed myself to braking on the inside and as I was doing the braking I felt a big hit on my rear suspension so I think she never saw me coming." Wolff, however, blamed Nasr for the accident, saying: "I most certainly didn't apologise. In my mind I had nothing to apologise for. I stayed completely on my line. I didn't expect him to move across as aggressively as he did and he hit my front left with his rear. It was an unfortunate incident but one I couldn't have avoided. I went straight over to him and said: 'What the hell went on?' And he was a bit speechless, and so was I. It was one of those things that you think: 'How did that just happen?'"<ref name="Sergio Thursday" />
