Frentzen fastest in first warm-up session

Jordan driver Heinz-Harald Frentzen went quickest in the first of this morning's two warm-up sessions at Monza

The German led the pack with a 1.23.651, closely followed by the McLarens of Mika Hakkinen [1.23.672] and David Coulthard [1.23.680).

Frentzen's team-mate Damon Hill managed 13th, with a 1.24.712.

Eddie Irvine remained off the pace [he was 16th overall in Friday's practice sessions], coming seventh with a 1.24.330.

The surprises came Stewart's Johnny Herbert, who follows in fourth place with a 1.23.971 - just over two-tenths slower than the McLarens, and eight places ahead of his team-mate Rubens Barrichello, who was 12th with a 1.24.617.

Williams driver Alex Zanardi continued his strong performance from yesterday's sessions with a 1.24.127s lap time.

His team-mate Ralf Schumacher was eight quickest this morning, putting in a 1.24.380.
