McLaren's 'B spec' car is as quick as a Ferrari, a Renault and a BAR.

That's the claim of David Coulthard after trailing the podium -dueling trio at a warm Magny-Cours circuit (France) on Sunday but eventually finishing fifth.

''I had the same speed [as them],'' he smiled.

Team-mate Kimi Raikkonen (6th) set the third-fastest lap of the race.

''I lost some grip in the middle,'' said Scottish DC, ''but it's an encouraging and reliable debut for the 19B. I'm looking forward to the rest of the year.''

Ron Dennis promises 'continuous development' for the balance of '04.

* Giancarlo Fisichella's was the fastest Sauber in France - but it wasn't very fast. ''Hopefully some new aero bits will help [at Silverstone],'' he frowned.
