This week the Winfield Williams team have been testing at the Barcelona circuit along with several other teams, both drivers have been present Frentzen and current World Champion Jacues Villeneuve.
The team is testing there with two cars, Frentzen is so far the quickest with a time in the 1.21sec a lap although this is a 1997 car on grooved tyres but without the narrow track.
Villeneuve was not present today (22/1/98) but had worked his way down to a 1.22sec in an interim car on grooved tyres and with a narrow track which is closer to the 1998 regulations.
