JORDAN's Heinz-Harald Frentzen believes he has got the concentration span to produce a positive result in Monaco this weekend.

Frentzen is a resident of Monaco and the German driver is aware of the concentration needed to complete race distance around the streets of Monte Carlo.

Frentzen said: "You need huge concentration to race in Monaco. It's a demanding and risky circuit, but that's what makes it enjoyable. Monaco is definitely the highlight of the Formula One calendar.

"My mental preparation for this race starts much earlier than for other races as living in Monaco, I drive along these roads most days. Scenarios and questions about the track and corners will whizz trough my mind for weeks before the race."

Jordan have recently tested the new EJ11 cars after the Austrian Grand Prix in a four-day test in Valencia and are hopeful that the problems experienced at the A1-Ring will be eradicated this weekend.
