Rubens Barrichello put on a good show for the sell out crowd at the Interlagos track outside Sao Paulo, Brazil by finishing fourth in free practice.

Ahead of Barrichello were the two McLarens (Coulthard third and Hakkinen first) and Michael Schumacher, who finished the day second.

Benson and Hedges Jordan drivers Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Jarno Trulli had a productive free practice today at the Interlagos circuit in Brazil. Both drivers enjoyed trouble free sessions working on set up for the race.

"I am very pleased with how the session went today," said Jarno Trulli. "Last week at the test in Silverstone I made some big improvements to the balance of the car and I am very happy because I felt the same improvements today. It was very good to have a trouble free session and I was able to continue to make improvements to the car’s set up."

"We did a good job today doing our homework for the race," commented Heinz-Harald Frentzen. "There were no problems and we gathered some important information which we can work on for tomorrow and Sunday."
