Zonta fastest in Sunday warm-up

Ricardo Zonta topped the time sheets in Sunday morning's race warm-up. The British American Racing driver was quickest for most of the session for what will be Honda's 200th GP

"Honda has raised their level a bit," said team boss Craig Pollock, "and the engineers found something on the car too. We should be very competitive in the race." Jacques Villeneuve was eighth.

Championship contenders Mika Hakkinen, Michael Schumacher and David Coulthard were second third and fourth, separated by just one tenth of a second.

Coulthard was one of a few drivers to suffer a spin in the early morning warm-up, losing control of his McLaren at the exit of the second chicane.

It is sunny and dry in Monza, and a large and expectant crowd has already built up, hoping that Ferrari can turn its 1-2 on the grid into the same in the race.
