Frentzen denies Arrows deal.
Heinz-Harald Frentzen is reported in the German press as denying that he has signed a one-year deal with the Arrows team. Frentzen, who started the 2001 season with Jordan before suddenly switching to the financially-inhibited Prost organisation, was thought to have agreed to drive for the British team on a much reduced salary - well below a million dollars for the season, a fraction of what we would have been earning at Jordan.
"Nothing is signed yet," 34-year-old Frentzen was reported as saying in the Die Welt newspaper. "But a decision will come soon."

Should Frentzen move to Arrows, who will have Cosworth engines in 2002, speculation then turns to which of the present line-up would move on. Jos Verstappen put in some mighty drives for the team early in the season, and scored their only championship point, but Brazilian rookie Enrique Bernoldi has close links with the Red Bull organisation - who have moved their F1 allegiance, and substantial sponsorship, from Sauber to Arrows.
