Practice sessions are usually a good indication for race pace and Ferrari seem ready to hit back at McLaren: Michael Schumacher and Eddie Irvine were comfortably faster than the rest of the field and even Fentzen remained in front of the Constructors World Champions in his Jordan - Mugen Honda.
Further down the grid, we saw a notable effort by Daniel Marzec: the Polish rookie pushed his Minardi far above where we expect the car in 12th, with more than a second (!!) difference with his (other rookie) team mate, Marc Gené.
For the home crowd there wasn't much to cheer about, with Brazilian drivers Pedro Diniz (13th), Rubens Barrichello (15th) and Ricardo Zonta (18th) playing anonymous roles in the margin.
