Minardi duo join Prost
PROST GRAND PRIX have confirmed they have captured two of Minardi's key mechanics as they prepare to unveil their 2001 challenger.
The Guyancourt-based team have finalized deals for Frenchman Jean-Francois Sinteff and Italian Gabriele Pagliarini to join the staff with the latter becoming chief mechanic.
Meanwhile, Prost are currently making final work on the new chassis and will perform a three-day shakedown at Magny-Cours later this month providing the circuit is dry.
The team will test the car for the first time with new Ferrari engines at the Circuit de Catalunya, Barcelona, on January 26.
