Frentzen -- 'my team-mate's a fighter'

GERMAN Heinz-Harald Frentzen has insisted that Jordan team-mate Jarno Trulli has been an ideal partner this season -- and predicted a future Grand Prix win for the Italian.

Trulli has matched the more experienced Frentzen this season, with both having six points in the championship.

Frentzen said: "Jarno is certainly a very talented driver and he can smell a chance of winning races or at least of getting onto a podium.

"He's fighting for it and it's a great support for us both that the team can support him with a well prepared car. He is also supporting me by making me get the best out of myself every time."
