As the Jordan Racing team was announcing its signing of Jean Alesi for the remaining five races of the 2001 season earlier today, the Prost Formula One team was making an announcement of its own. Prost have signed fired Jordan driver Heinz-Harald Frentzen to replace Alesi for the rest of the year in what has turned out to basically be a straight swap.

Prost's team boss Alain Prost said in a statement that he was very excited about Frentzen joining the team and that the German will be making his debut with them at the Hungarian Grand Prix on August 19. He added that he was hoping that Frentzen's past experience with some of Formula One's top teams would be an asset to Prost and help them to achieve their future goals.

Prost said: "I am delighted to welcome Heinz-Harald to our team, His achievements in Formula One in the last few years place him amongst the best and his experience with the top F1 teams will be a strong asset for us in the remainder of the season. His arrival allows us to prepare for the future with confidence. It is essential to preserve our team's serenity - that is why I chose to release Jean.”

Frentzen, who will be teaming up with Luciano Burti, said he was delighted to be returning to F1 after missing his home grand prix at Hockenheim two weeks ago following his firing by Jordan. So far this season he has scored six world championship points, and is aiming to add a few more to his total during the last five races of the season with Prost.

Frentzen said: “I am happy that I have the chance to drive for Prost in the last five races of the season. It would have been very difficult to turn down this opportunity and I am looking forward to supporting the team for the rest of the season."

To be honest, I can't see the point in Frentzen going to Prost. Let's face it, they're crap.

Good move for Jean though, lets hope he gets a couple of good results before the season is out, he deserves it.

No way!

Jordan regularly qualify in the top 10! Prost are normally below 15! The Prosts have been battling with the Benettons, Alesio even finished behind a Benneton at Hockenheim.
