Fisi in Action
Good first practice for Jordan

Friday free practice's first timed session was trouble-free for Jordan, with Giancarlo Fisichella and Takuma Sato completing their morning set-up programmes and finishing fifth and twelfth fastest respectively. 

As the session ended, Director of Race and Test Engineering, Gary Anderson, said, "We have started quite well and the balance of the cars is not bad. We have a bit of work to do because the track is quite slippery and dirty at the moment and generally we're quite good in those conditions.  We sometimes lose out a bit when the track builds up grip but hopefully we can carry on the good work into the afternoon."
