'B' stands for 'better,' McLaren's David Coulthard proved at Magny-Cours.

The Scot, debuting MP4-19B in France this weekend, qualified a season-best third. ''We have made progress with the car,'' he said on Saturday afternoon.

Sunday will reveal just how much fuel is in the Mercedes-powered car.

''But, no matter what, we have improved significantly,'' he insisted.

CEO Ron Dennis, meanwhile, claimed Kimi Raikkonen's 'enthusiasm got the better of him. ''I tried too hard,'' the Finn admitted, ''and made some mistakes.''

* Cristiano da Matta said the Toyota is quicker in France than he expected it to be. ''I'm certainly not going to complain,'' the diminutive Brazilian laughed.

He's half a second quicker than France's F1 ace and team-mate Olivier Panis.
