GRAND PRIX – THURSDAY PRACTICE SESSION
20th May 2004 Weather: Dry Track Temp: 26 – 31 degrees Air temp: 20 – 22 degrees
Jaguar Racing drivers, Mark Webber (27), Christian Klien (21) and Björn Wirdheim took to the street circuit of Monaco today to participate in the first two practice sessions of the Grand Prix weekend. Mark completed eight competitive laps before coming to a stop after suffering from an oil leak caused by a loose engine pressure hose. A fire broke out and as a result of extensive damage to the rear of the car he was forced to sit the second session out. Christian has a good morning on track and managed to complete his planned test programme. The second session saw him clash with the barriers on corner three after an electrical box failure shut down the engine and then the hydraulics. Björn was going well when he stopped just outside the tunnel with a wheel speed sensor failure in his first session. After running wide at corner ten in the second session he touched the barriers and damaged the right rear suspension and the front right suspension. A tough day for the team who will now work on the cars in preparation for Saturday’s qualifying.

Björn Wirdheim Position : 24th Best time : N.A Chassis : R5 - 04 I could have done with some more running time out there but I managed to complete at least some of my programme before there was a wheel speed related problem that caused me to stop this morning. We got the car back out this morning and then this afternoon after running wide at corner ten I hit the barriers and damaged my rear right suspension and front right suspension. The team are working on this now but I would have liked to had kept the car on track and completed more miles.
