 Benetton Strike Problems Again Friday March 16th, 2001
Giancarlo Fisichella gave the team some hope with a 13th fastest time, but Jenson Button ended the session down in 17th. "I didn't get any timed laps completed in the first session as there was a problem with the temperature of the gearbox," said Button. "In the afternoon session we focused primarily on set-up and tried a few different directions." Fisichella's problems, meanwhile, centred around his car's electronics. But he did have enough time to improve on his set-up in the afternoon session. "We still have some understeer in the slow corners," said Fisichella. "But considering I lost so much time this morning due to the battery change on my car, I am pleased with the progress we have made."
