Both Williams are doing well in Barcelona ...

Published on 24 May 1997 by Verstappen Info Page

Both Williams are doing well in Barcelona during the second free practice of this morning. Frentzen was again fastest in 1:17.457 followed by Villeneuve at 0.2 sec. It looks as if it's going to be very tide this afternoon since all top teams were very fast this morning. The rest of the top 6 looks as followed, Coulthard, Alesi, Herbert and Michael Schumacher.

Jos was able to make a strong improvement with the ED4 version engine to 1:21.599 using new tyres. However he was not able to improve his position (22). Hopefully Jos will be able to improve his position using the ED5 version motor during the qualification this afternoon. Salo also improved his time a little bit to 1:20.849 (P18). The difference with Jos looks explainable in the difference in motor version.
