UNITED STATES GRAND PRIX FORMULA ONE NOTEBOOK
American Bell testing for second Jaguar seat; American Antinucci earns F3 glory

INDIANAPOLIS, Monday, Nov. 24, 2003 – Townsend Bell of the United States is one of the drivers being considered as Mark Webber’s teammate at Jaguar Racing for the 2004 Formula One season, which includes the United States Grand Prix on June 20 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Bell, 28, will be one of several drivers testing for Jaguar at Spain’s Valencia circuit from Nov. 25-27. Austria’s Christian Klien, 20, who finished second in the Euro Formula 3 championship, and England’s Justin Wilson, who competed in five Grands Prix for Jaguar last year, will also test for Jaguar. The team also has expressed interest in Austria’s Alexander Wurz, now working as a test driver for West McLaren-Mercedes.

The upcoming test is not a shoot-out but part of Jaguar’s evaluation of potential drivers, a team spokesman said. Other drivers may test for the team before a decision is made.

Bell competed in the 2003 FIA International Formula 3000 Championship with the Arden International team alongside Sweden’s Bjorn Wirdheim, who won the title. The highlight of Bell’s season came in the Hungarian round where he took third and became the first driver from the United States to finish on a podium in an F3000 race. He ended up ninth in the final points standings.

This will be Bell’s second test in a F1 car. In September, he tested with the Lucky Strike BAR-Honda team. The three-day test, which took place at the Lurcy circuit in central France, saw Bell complete more than 930 miles (1,500 km) of straight-line testing on a one-mile (1.5-km) track as he worked closely with Honda engineers to collect data.

Bell competed in the Formula Dodge Western championship in the United States in 1997. He won twice and finished fourth in points. In 1998, he raced in the U.S. Barber Dodge Pro Series, and the following year he scored a win and finished third in that championship.

Bell moved up to Indy Lights in 2000 where he ended up second in the final standings after winning two races. In 2001, Bell won six times to become Indy Lights champion. In 2002, he competed in nine CART races with a best finish of fourth.

His goal is to become the first U.S. driver to compete in F1 since Michael Andretti in 1993.

“It is just a question of getting the right opportunity,” Bell said earlier this year. “Maybe that comes tomorrow; maybe that comes next year or the year after. Whether it is fair or not, I get a bit of an advantage because I’m an American, and that is nice, for once.

“I’d like to play a small part in making F1 more popular in the United States, which would be great for everyone, not just myself. None of it matters, however, unless you are getting the results on the racetrack.”

American wins prestigious Formula 3 event: United States driver Richard Antinucci won both heats of the Korean Grand Prix Formula 3 race on Nov. 23.

The Korean race, and the Macau event that precedes it, are two annual high-profile events that bring together the top Formula 3 drivers from around the world for two non-championship but prestigious races. Formula 3 has long been recognized as a one of the major feeder series for developing future Formula One drivers.

Antinucci, driving a Hitech Racing Dallara, never was headed by any of the opposition from the 34-car grid in Korea. He started the first race from third, but thanks to a superb start overtook front-row qualifiers Lewis Hamilton and Nelson Piquet Jr. (son of three-time World Champion Nelson Piquet, himself a F3 graduate) off the line. Despite Piquet catching him and at one point giving him a small tap from behind, Antinucci was able to keep in front and take the checkered flag.

Race two was a repeat of race one, although this time Antinucci started from pole. He built up a healthy cushion on the pursuing pack.

Antinucci, the nephew of 1998 Indianapolis 500 winner and F1 veteran Eddie Cheever Jr., led every lap of both races.

The Macau weekend saw Antinucci finish third in one race but retire in the other. France’s Nicolas Lapierre won the Macau event.

“It was awesome,” Antinucci said. “Wining these races and being the most successful driver overall in the two end-of-season events is a dream come true. Both tracks are very tricky as they are street circuits that no one has access to all year. It is all down to your driving on the day and a strong team.”

***

Canadian Grand Prix confirmed for June 13: The Canadian Grand Prix will take place June 13, 2004, now that organizers have succeeded in building a financial package to secure the race.

“We have reached a deal with Formula One Management and Bernie Ecclestone, representing the teams, and the Canadian Grand Prix will be on the calendar in 2004 and beyond (until 2006),” race promoter Normand Legault said at a news conference Nov. 18 in Montreal.

This means that F1 fans in North America will enjoy a “doubleheader” of back-to-back F1 weekends, as the Canadian race will take place one week before the United States Grand Prix on June 20 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

***

Testing ban ends: The postseason F1 test ban ends Nov. 25, and most of the F1 teams will begin testing in Spain that day. On-track testing has been prohibited since the season-ending Japanese Grand Prix on Oct. 12.

The first tests will involve the Bridgestone teams at Barcelona’s Circuit de Catalunya while the Michelin teams will be in Valencia. West McLaren-Mercedes will become the first team to run its 2004 car when it tests the MP4-19 in Valencia.

Reigning World Champion Michael Schumacher will not test until January so that he can rest and recharge his batteries for the upcoming season. He also is recuperating from a minor knee injury he suffered while playing soccer.

***

New car launch dates announced: Three teams have announced when they will unveil their 2004 F1 cars.

The new Sauber Petronas C22 will be launched Jan. 12 at the Red Bull hangar at Austria’s Salzburg airport. Jaguar will show its Jaguar Cosworth R5 on Jan. 18 at Barcelona’s Circuit de Catalunya. Mild Seven Renault will launch it its R24 on Jan. 29 in Palermo, Italy.

Fitness testing: Sauber Petronas’ new drivers, Giancarlo Fisichella and Felipe Massa, undertook a fitness and health-training program for four days recently in Austria.

The training was based on prior medical fitness examinations, such as blood tests and comparisons of the current results with those of previous checks. The main focus was on senso-motoric activities. Indoor climbing, tennis, soccer and mountain walking were on the agenda to enhance coordination, physical strength and concentration.

“I enjoyed the fitness camp very much,” Fisichella said. “We did a lot of testing with very good results. I think this gave me a good start to my work with Sauber, and I feel absolutely fit for my first test with my new team next week.

“It was also the first time that I went climbing! It was a great experience and good training for the hands and body. You really have to figure out the best and most feasible way to reach the goal, and this makes it particularly challenging.”

Fisichella, who drove for Jordan for the past two seasons, will conduct his first test with Sauber from Nov. 25-27 at Barcelona.

***

Charity donation: Six-time World Champion Michael Schumacher donated $1 million to UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.

***

New sponsor: Lucky Strike BAR-Honda has signed the U.K. division of Haas Automation, an American machine tool manufacturer, as an official supplier to the team.

Haas is the largest machine tool builder in the United States, and employs almost 1,000 people in its 820,000 square-foot facility in California. Haas manufactures four major product lines: vertical machining centers, horizontal machining centers, CNC lathes and rotary tables. Haas Automation will supply BAR with two high-speed CNC machining centers.

2004 U.S. GRAND PRIX TICKET SALES BEGIN FOR GENERAL PUBLIC

INDIANAPOLIS, Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2003 – Tickets went on sale to the general public Nov. 12 for the 2004 United States Grand Prix at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, as the renewal period for 2003 ticket holders is complete.

All fans – newcomers to the event and previous attendees – can order tickets online at www.indianapolismotorspeedway.com, by calling the IMS ticket office at (317) 492-6700 or (800) 822-INDY outside the Indianapolis area, or at the ticket office at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The 2004 United States Grand Prix is scheduled for June 20, a new date for the event. The USGP took place in late September since it came to the IMS in 2000.

“It’s more important than ever that fans make their purchases early due to the new June date for 2004,” said Joie Chitwood, IMS senior vice president of business affairs. “With the holidays just around the corner, tickets to the only Formula One race in the United States, with its spectacular sights and sounds, make an ideal gift.”

As an added incentive for ticket buyers, the popular pit walkabout will return to the 2004 race. Race Day ticket holders for the 2004 United States Grand Prix can get an up-close, free look at the Formula One pits during the walkabout, which debuted at the 2003 event to overwhelming popularity.

The date and time of the walkabout will be announced in the future.
Another new feature for the 2004 race will be new seating in two locations in the infield of the 2.605-mile road course.

The new reserved Terrace seating, outside Turn 6 and between Turns 10 and 11, will provide one of the closest views of Formula One’s high-performance cars and skilled drivers in the world. The front of the Turn 6 Terrace will be approximately 50 yards from the edge of the track, and the Turn 10 Terrace will be closer.

Michael Schumacher won the 2003 United States Grand Prix on Sept. 28 in a Ferrari en route to his record sixth World Championship.

FANS SHOULD BUY, RENEW 2004 UNITED STATES GRAND PRIX TICKETS NOW

New summer date, popular pit walkabout, infield seats are highlights of next year’s event

INDIANAPOLIS, Tuesday, Sept. 30, 2003 – United States Grand Prix and Formula One fans are encouraged to send their ticket renewals, upgrades and orders for the 2004 race, scheduled for Sunday, June 20, to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway as soon as possible.

The fifth United States Grand Prix at Indianapolis is moving to a June date after taking place in late September for the last four years.

Also confirmed for the 2004 race is the return of the popular pit walkabout. Race Day ticket holders for the 2004 United States Grand Prix can get an up-close, free look at the Formula One pits during the walkabout, which debuted at this event Sept. 25 to overwhelming popularity.

The date and time of the walkabout will be announced in the future.

Another new feature for the 2004 race will be new seating in two locations in the infield of the 2.605-mile road course.

The new reserved Terrace seating, outside Turn 6 and between Turns 10 and 11, will provide one of the closest views among all F1 venues worldwide of Formula One’s high-performance cars and skilled drivers. The front of the Turn 6 Terrace will be approximately 50 yards from the edge of the track, and the Turn 10 Terrace will be closer.

Ferrari driver Michael Schumacher won the United States Grand Prix on Sept. 28 in the most competitive of the four F1 events at the Speedway since 2000. Schumacher was one of six leaders in the exciting event, which took place in mixed weather conditions that forced constant changes of strategy.

Schumacher moved within one point of his record sixth World Championship with his victory. He is expected to return for his 14th F1 season in 2004, taking on younger archrivals that include 2000 Indianapolis 500 winner Juan Pablo Montoya of Williams-BMW, Kimi Raikkonen of McLaren-Mercedes and Fernando Alonso of Renault.

2003 JAPANESE GRAND PRIX POSTSCRIPT

Champion Schumacher rejects comparisons to Fangio; Competition returned in 2003

INDIANAPOLIS, Wednesday, Oct. 15, 2003 – Michael Schumacher clinched a record sixth Formula One Drivers World Championship in the season-ending Japanese Grand Prix on Oct. 12. While he now has one more title than the legendary Juan Manuel Fangio, who won five championships in the 1950s, Schumacher still has immense respect for Fangio.

“Fangio is on a level much higher than I see myself,” Schumacher said. “There is absolutely no comparison. What he did stands alone, and what we have achieved is also unique. I have such respect for what he achieved.”

Germany’s Schumacher and Argentina’s Fangio both won four championships in a row. Fangio’s titles came in 1951, and 1954-57. Schumacher won the crown in 1994-95 and from 2000-03. Fangio won 24 times in 51 starts for a stunning winning average of 47.06 percent. Schumacher has 70 victories, including two wins in the United States Grand Prix at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, in 190 starts for a winning average of 36.84 percent.

Fangio’s career lasted slightly more than seven years while Schumacher has been in F1 for slightly more than 12 years. Besides his victories, Fangio finished on the podium 11 other times, scored six other top-six finishes and won 28 pole positions.

Schumacher has been on the podium 53 times besides his 70 victories, finished in the top six 20 other times and been on pole 55 times.

“I am not trying to compare myself to Fangio,” Schumacher said. “You cannot compare someone like Fangio with the present day.”

Competitive season: The 2003 Formula One season was closely contested from the first race to the last.

Last year, Michael Schumacher won the championship with 144 points while his Ferrari teammate, Rubens Barrichello, finished second with 77 points. This year, Schumacher won the title by just two points, 93-91, over Kimi Raikkonen. 2000 Indianapolis 500 winner Juan Pablo Montoya stayed in the championship hunt right up until the United States Grand Prix, and he ended up third with 82 points.

Last year, Ferrari earned 221 points in the Constructors Championship, which also were the total points earned by the other 10 teams combined. This year, the Constructors Championship wasn’t settled until the final race. Ferrari won a record 13th Constructors Championship with 158 points while Williams-BMW ended up second with 144, and McLaren-Mercedes was third with 142.

Montoya pleased: Juan Pablo Montoya isn’t too upset with third place in the Drivers Championship. He contended for the title until he finished sixth in the United States Grand Prix on Sept. 28 at Indianapolis. Montoya led the season-ending Japanese Grand Prix when his Williams-BMW stopped with hydraulic failure.

“With hindsight, I’m not that displeased that I was no longer in the battle for the Drivers Championship because retiring at the last race in this way would have been much harder,” he said. “If I look back at the season, I am very, very happy with the job I made. I learned a lot from last year, and I have matured as a driver.”

Fifth place to BAR-Honda: The battle to be the “best of the rest” behind the top four teams – Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro, BMW WilliamsF1, West McLaren-Mercedes and Mild Seven Renault – was not settled until the season-ending Japanese Grand Prix.

Thanks to Jenson Button finishing fourth and Takuma Sato sixth in Japan, the Lucky Strike BAR-Honda team finished fifth with 26 points. Sauber-Petronas was sixth with 19 points followed by Jaguar Racing with 18 and Panasonic Toyota Racing with 16.

Da Matta satisfied: Rookie Cristiano da Matta earned points four times and scored eight other top-11 finishes times in his first F1 season with Panasonic Toyota.

“For my debut season in F1 and the team’s second, I think that we have done an excellent job, even if the points have been difficult to come by,” said da Matta, the 2002 CART champion. “We have learned a lot over the last 16 races and shown the full potential of the Toyota team, so I am looking forward to more improvement next season.”

Sauber’s 2004 drivers: Sauber-Petronas has confirmed that Felipe Massa and Giancarlo Fisichella will be the team’s drivers in 2004.

Massa, who made his F1 debut with Sauber in 2002, spent 2003 working as a test driver for Ferrari. Fisichella, who won the Brazilian Grand Prix this year driving a Jordan-Ford, has signed a two-year contact with Sauber.

Sauber’s 2003 drivers, Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Nick Heidfeld, have yet to find F1 rides for 2004.

Tire switch: Lucky Strike BAR-Honda has asked to be released from its Bridgestone contract one year early so that it can run on Michelins in 2004.

“Michelin will give its response to this request in the very near future,” a statement from Michelin said, “but given that (the rule) clearly states that a tire manufacturer must be prepared to equip up to 60 percent of the entered teams, Michelin is obviously obliged to respond positively.”

Bridgestone is studying the situation.

50th Grand Prix: Kimi Raikkonen and 2000 Indianapolis 500 winner Juan Pablo Montoya each competed in their 50th career Grand Prix in Japan.

Testing ban: No F1 on-track testing is permitted between Oct. 13 and Nov. 25.

2004 season: The 2004 Formula One season kicks off with the Australian Grand Prix on March 7. The fifth annual United States Grand Prix at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway will take place Sunday, June 20.

USGP tickets: Tickets for the 2004 United States Grand Prix at Indianapolis on June 20 are on sale, and the IMS ticket office encourages customers to place orders early to ensure the best possible opportunity to acquire good seats.

Tickets can be purchased online at www.indianapolismotorspeedway.com or by calling the IMS ticket office at (317) 492-6700 or (800) 822-INDY outside the Indianapolis area. Parking and camping information also can be obtained through the ticket office.

USGP TICKET HOLDERS CAN SEE F1 UP CLOSE DURING PIT WALKABOUT

INDIANAPOLIS, Thursday, Aug. 7, 2003 – Race day ticket holders for the 2003 United States Grand Prix can get an up-close look at one of the most exclusive places in motorsports – the Formula One pits – during a pit walkabout Thursday, Sept. 25 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The walkabout takes place from 8 a.m.-noon (EST, Indy time) and is available for free to all ticket holders for the 2003 United States Grand Prix. This is one of the very few fan walkabouts available on the 16-event, global F1 schedule in 2003.

“It’s only fitting that the Speedway is offering this exciting, new pit walkabout to United States Grand Prix fans during one of the most thrilling Formula One seasons in recent memory,” said Joie Chitwood, Indianapolis Motor Speedway senior vice president of business affairs. “The pit walkabout will provide United States Grand Prix fans with an up-close look at the technology and intricacies of a Formula One team.

“We’re pleased to offer increased accessibility to the inner workings of F1 as an added incentive for our ticket buyers, and this pit walkabout will be the start of a great weekend of exciting racing.”

Fans can walk the pits and stand adjacent to the open garages, providing a clear view of the sleek cars, high-tech equipment and skilled personnel of all 10 Formula One teams, including current standouts Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro, BMW WilliamsF1 and West McLaren Mercedes. Those three teams will continue their intense chase for Drivers and Constructors Championships during the fourth annual Formula One race on the 2.606-mile road circuit at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

While no formal driver appearances are scheduled during the walkabout, F1 drivers have been in the garages and signed autographs during walkabouts at other Grand Prix venues.

Still and video photography will be allowed during the walkabout.
United States Grand Prix ticket holders will be mailed separate passes for the walkabout. Instructions for parking and entering the track will accompany the passes.

Tickets for the 2003 United States Grand Prix at Indianapolis are on sale, and the IMS ticket office encourages customers to place orders early to ensure the best possible opportunity to acquire good seats.

Tickets can be purchased online at indianapolismotorspeedway, or by calling the IMS ticket office at (317) 492-6700 or (800) 822-INDY outside the Indianapolis area. Parking and camping information also can be obtained through the ticket office.

POINTS RACE HEATING UP AS F1 HEADS TO HOT FRANCE

MAGNY-COURS, France, Thursday, July 3, 2003 - In a Formula One season that has seen six different winners in the first nine races, it is difficult to predict who will win any race. And that holds true for the French Grand Prix on July 6.

It's the 10th of 16 rounds in the FIA Formula One World Championship that includes the United States Grand Prix on Sept. 28 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Michael Schumacher, the only multi-time winner this season, leads the Drivers World Championship with 58 points while Kimi Raikkonen is second place with 51 points. Schumacher, a five-time winner in France, said Ferrari will work hard to stay ahead in the points.

"We would like to build on this lead in France," he said, "and I think it is possible to do so."

Rubens Barrichello has finished on the podium five times this year but has yet to win.

It was here in France a year ago that Raikkonen came close to earning his first F1 victory but ended up second after sliding off on a patch of oil while leading. He did earn his first victory this season in March at Malaysia.

A week ago, Raikkonen earned his first F1 pole position and led the first third of the European Grand Prix but retired with engine problems.

Raikkonen and the West McLaren-Mercedes team are looking for a payback this weekend.

"I am particularly looking forward to the event and hopefully erasing the memories of my now-infamous incident toward the end of the race last year," Raikkonen said. "It was, of course, a bittersweet moment when I missed out so narrowly on what would have been my first Formula One victory."

Raikkonen and teammate David Coulthard have both scored a victory this season. Williams-BMW teammates Ralf Schumacher and Juan Pablo Montoya have also won this season. Ralf Schumacher is the year's most recent winner, having scored a victory last Sunday in the European Grand Prix.

"After my victory at the Nürburgring, I am going to Magny-Cours with much more confidence," Ralf Schumacher said. "In the last few races we have proved that we can compete with the Ferraris and the McLarens, and if you can do well on a circuit like the Nürburgring, you should be able to do well elsewhere. Our expectations are obviously high, but we know we still have work to do to maintain our current competitiveness."

2000 Indianapolis 500 winner Montoya also made headlines in the last race because of his audacious passing maneuver when he went by Michael Schumacher on the outside to snatch second place.

"The French Grand Prix will hopefully be another good race for us as our car is always fairly competitive at Magny-Cours," Montoya said. "Last year I was on pole, and I've always been pretty quick there anyway. For the last two years it has been really hot there, which will really suit our Michelin tires, as well."

This is the home Grand Prix for Michelin, the Mild Seven Renault team, and Panasonic Toyota driver Olivier Panis.

"It doesn't bring added pressure," said Renault driver Fernando Alonso. "The team and I always do the best we can, whatever the race."

Panis has never finished in the top six in his home Grand Prix.

"Although I have not done too well here in the past, I am very confident for this year's race because I believe that the high-speed circuit should suit our TF103 car," Panis said.

The layout of the Magny-Cours circuit has been modified for the first time since 1992. The Chateau d'Eau bend (Turn 13) has been reprofiled. And the configurations of the final turns, called the Lycee Complex, also have been have been changed, so Turns 14 through 17 are completely different to the old layout that contained 16 turns.

The changes have lengthened the track from 2.641 miles (4.251 km) to 2.741 miles (4.411 km), and that has resulted in the race distance changing from 72 laps in 2002 to 70 laps this year.

EUROPEAN GP PROVIDES HOMECOMING FOR GERMAN DRIVERS

NURBURG, Germany

Thursday, June 26, 2003 - The second half of the Formula One season, which includes the United States Grand Prix on Sept. 28 at Indianapolis, gets underway with the European Grand Prix at Germany's Nürburgring this weekend.

This is a home Grand Prix for World Championship leader Michael Schumacher, Ralf Schumacher, Heinz-Harald Frentzen and Nick Heidfeld as well as engine manufacturers BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

The Schumacher brothers grew up in the nearby town of Kerpen.

"Coming to the Nürburgring is something special for me," Michael Schumacher said. "It is not far from my home, and usually a lot of my fans turn out to support me. That helps, and it's a great feeling when you arrive to find this tremendous atmosphere. It's good to have this support, and also I have many good memories of this place."

Those good memories include three F1 wins at the Nürburgring. A win Sunday would be his 50th for Ferrari and the 69th of his career. His brother, Ralf, also has good memories of the Nürburgring.

"I am really looking forward to going to the Nürburgring," said Williams-BMW's Ralf Schumacher, "partly because it is so close to Kerpen, where I grew up, but mainly because the FW25 is continually improving and producing good results. This has obviously been hugely motivating for everyone in the team as well as for myself. I've raced at the Nürburgring 17 times in my career."

Ralf Schumacher's teammate, Juan Pablo Montoya, winner of the 2000 Indianapolis 500, said his victory in the Monaco Grand Prix earlier this month has motivated the team to a new level.

"Winning definitely creates a better atmosphere," said Montoya, who started on the pole here last year, "and it also provides a great environment to produce more good results. We came to Germany with an optimistic attitude. I especially enjoy this race, as it's a great driver's circuit. Since the changes made for last year's race, there are more overtaking opportunities, making it a more interesting race to drive as well as providing a better spectacle for the fans."

This will be David Coulthard's 150th Grand Prix start, and he's spent 125 of those races with West McLaren-Mercedes. His teammate, Kimi Raikkonen, lost the lead in the World Championship two weeks ago when he finished sixth in the Canadian Grand Prix while Michael Schumacher won.

"Obviously, the result at Canada was not ideal," Raikkonen said, "but it was not a disaster. Despite my qualifying position (last), I was able to salvage some points, and as a consequence Michael only has a lead of three points, and at this halfway point of the season we still have another eight races to go and a lot of points to be won."

McLaren has decided to not race its new MP4-18 car until the British Grand Prix on July 20th at the earliest, so Coulthard and Raikkonen will drive the MP4-17D this weekend.

Frentzen and Heidfeld, who drive for Sauber-Petronas, are the other two German drivers racing in their home Grand Prix this weekend. Both grew up in the town of Moenchengladbach.

In the first three races this season, Heidfeld finished eighth in Malaysia while Frentzen took a sixth in Australia and fifth in Brazil. Since then, neither driver has scored a point.

"We are not the fastest at the moment, for sure," Frentzen said, "but we try to keep fighting and try to do our best in the circumstances we are in at the moment. Our main focus is to develop the car a little bit faster."

The European Grand Prix is a "floating" title and it has been used at several different venues since 1983, including Jerez in Spain, Brands Hatch and Donington in England and the Nürburgring in Germany.

The Nürburgring track was modified extensively last year to create better overtaking opportunities through the first section of four turns now called the Mercedes Arena.

Several more modifications have been made to the track this year. Turn 4, the last bend in the Mercedes Arena, has been shaped rounder to provide a smoother line for the drivers as they come through the turn. The runoff areas have been paved with asphalt.

To prevent the drivers from cutting across the curbs at the NGK Chicane, Turns 14 and 15, the chicane is now sharper with a more pronounced left/right turn. The modifications lengthened the track from 3.197 miles (5.146 km) to 3.199 miles (5.148 km).

RACE REPORT: BRAZILIAN GRAND PRIX

Raikkonen wins wet, wild race at Interlagos due to scoring rule after red flag

SAO PAULO, Brazil, Sunday, April 6, 2003 - Kimi Raikkonen avoided all the accidents and hazards and won a drama-filled Brazilian Grand Prix in his West McLaren-Mercedes on April 6. His second Formula One victory came just two weeks after his maiden win in Malaysia.

The 71-lap race at the Interlagos circuit was stopped as leader Giancarlo Fisichella began Lap 55 because of separate accidents involving Mark Webber, who crashed his Jaguar Cosworth in the final turn, and then Fernando Alonso, who crashed his Mild Seven Renault after hitting debris from Webber's accident.

Fisichella had taken the lead in his Benson & Hedges Jordan-Ford on Lap 54, and the red flag came out to stop the race just as he completed Lap 55. But the rules declare the official finishing positions will be the running order two laps before the red flag is shown. And the finishing order on Lap 53 had Raikkonen in first, followed by Fisichella and Alonso.

"What a race!" Raikkonen said. "I think with some of the bad luck I have experienced in the past, it was time that I was lucky. Giancarlo overtook me when I went wide. I was coming into the pits for my final stop when the race was red-flagged."

As more than 75 percent of the race had been completed, it was not restarted. For a few joyous minutes, Fisichella thought that he had won his first Grand Prix, only to learn that he was actually classified second. This is the sixth time in his F1 career that he has finished second.

"We really believed that we had won just after the race," Fisichella said. "It was an amazing moment, but unfortunately I finished second. But it's a fantastic result. I would like to say thanks to the team. We did a fantastic strategy, and it's a very important result for us."

While Alonso was taken to the hospital for observation, neither he nor Webber suffered any serious injuries.

The Safety Car came out for the final time because of the Webber accident, and it was traveling so slowly that Fisichella's car overheated and caught fire as he brought it into the pits.

Every driver had a tale to tell in this race with a "but" or an "if" something had not happened "I could have been in the points."

If David Coulthard had not pitted on Lap 52, he probably would have won. As it was, he ended up fourth in his McLaren. Heinz-Harald Frentzen started from the pits with a full load of fuel in his Sauber-Petronas and made his first pit stop on Lap 54. As the finishing order was determined after 53 laps, he was classed fifth.

1995 Indianapolis 500 winner Jacques Villeneuve slid off the track at one stage but managed to bring his Lucky Strike BAR-Honda home sixth. Webber was classed seventh. Jarno Trulli made a pit stop on Lap 53 and dropped from sixth to eighth. Ralf Schumacher's Williams-BMW and Cristiano da Matta's Panasonic Toyota rounded out the 10 classified finishers.

Heavy rain Sunday morning delayed the start of the race by 15 minutes. Because the track was still very wet, the first nine laps of the race were run behind the Safety Car. When the race was finally started, pole sitter Rubens Barrichello took the lead in his Ferrari.

Barrichello, Coulthard and Raikkonen would all take turns at the front of the pack. Barrichello was leading easily when his car stopped with fuel feed problems on Lap 47. He has finished only once in 11 starts at his home event.

Reigning World Champion Michael Schumacher started seventh and had worked his way up to third before he spun and crashed in Turn 3. This was the first time since the 1999 European Grand Prix in October 1999 that both Ferraris have failed to finish.

The river of water running across the track at Turn 3 claimed quite a few victims including Michael Schumacher, Jos Verstappen (European Minardi-Cosworth), 2000 Indianapolis 500 winner Juan Pablo Montoya (Williams-BMW), Jenson Button (Lucky Strike BAR-Honda) and Antonio Pizzonia (Jaguar-Cosworth).

In another accident in Turn 1, the front suspension broke on Ralf Firman's B&H Jordan-Ford, and that sent him spinning into Oliver Panis' Toyota.

It was a wet and wild race. In all, the Safety Car came out four times. Most drivers would have had to pit again, so the outcome of the race would have been different if it had run the full 71 laps. But Raikkonen was in the right place at the right time to take the victory.

Raikkonen averaged 94.711 mph (152.423 km/h) to complete the shortened 53-lap, 141.888-mile (228.347 km) race in one hour, 29 minutes and 53.179 seconds. His margin of victory was .831 of a second.

The Brazilian Grand Prix is the third of 16 in this year's FIA Formula One World Championship that includes the fourth annual United States Grand Prix on Sept. 28 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The next round is the San Marino Grand Prix on April 20.

QUOTEBOOK

KIMI RAIKKONEN (West McLaren-Mercedes, winner): "The first two laps were quite difficult with the conditions. After that, I got past the other cars. It was much easier to drive, because in the first place there was no spray from the other cars. Things were going well. It was a good decision that we didn't come in and pit at the first Safety Car. Things went quite well the whole race. Maybe we were a little bit lucky, but a win is a win, and that's all that matters."

GIANCARLO FISICHELLA (Benson & Hedges Jordan-Ford, second): "It was a great day, anyway. I have to say that I am very disappointed for two reasons: First of all for Fernando; I hope that he's all right, and then also because I won the race. But the rules say that when there is a red flag, the result is taken from one lap before (two laps in fact), so I am very sorry about that. But I never thought I would finish in second position, so it's a great day, anyway."

DAVID COULTHARD (West McLaren-Mercedes, fourth): "I was having a good race and was in control. It was the right decision to start the race behind the Safety Car as you could see from the many accidents once the race was on. I am happy with my performance today as I was leading the race under the most difficult conditions you can imagine."

HEINZ-HARALD FRENTZEN (Sauber-Petronas, fifth): "Just before the start, we changed our strategy and decided to use the T-car because it was set up fully for wet conditions. At the end of the day, it turned out to be the right decision. It was not easy to run with a full tank, and I had a lot of aquaplaning, which made me spin once."

JACQUES VILLENEUVE (Lucky Strike BAR-Honda, sixth): "It was a very difficult race. The track was tough to drive, but if you took care of yourself then it wasn't too bad. There wasn't that much water, really. It's down to the drivers to be less crazy in those conditions, and there was some crazy driving out there. Some drivers were overtaking under the yellow flags; halfway through the race I saw Alonso overtake under the flags. I think it's that kind of driving that leads to big accidents. We saw the same thing in the pit stops with drivers chopping across the field on the exit then having to lift halfway down the straight to stop them going off onto the grass. It's that sort of thing that creates the danger, not just the conditions themselves. I'm pleased with sixth place today."

MARK WEBBER (Jaguar-Cosworth, seventh): "We were looking good for third place, but my tires were so worn that it was like driving on slicks."

JARNO TRULLI (Mild Seven Renault, eighth): "A very tough race. The circuit was so wet that it was difficult to see anything. I had my second pit stop just before the race was stopped, which meant that I lost several positions."

CRISTIANO DA MATTA (Panasonic Toyota, 10th): "When we had full wet weather conditions, we were in reasonable shape, and our pit-stop strategy got me as high as fourth when the Safety Car was deployed for the second time. When the track started to dry out, things got much worse, and I picked up really bad oversteer. We have to look into the problem. We thought it was to do with the tire pressures, but the car was slow on high and low tire pressures in the drying conditions. Not the result I wanted today in front of my fans, but we are now heading into the European season, where I hope we can get good results."

RUBENS BARRICHELLO (Ferrari, retired Lap 47): "I am very disappointed. All I can say is that I did my very best. The beginning of the race, when the track was at its wettest, was difficult, as the car had a relatively low downforce setup. I concentrated on staying calm, waiting for the right moment to attack. Once in the lead, I immediately pulled out a gap, but then I was forced to stop with a fuel feed problem. It was very frustrating as I was sure I could win. I am very disappointed not to have taken victory here in front of my fans. This double retirement does not mean we are in a crisis. We have been competitive in all three races so far."

MICHAEL SCHUMACHER (Ferrari, retired on Lap 27): "I am disappointed for myself and for what happened to Rubens. We both had the possibility of winning today. The weather conditions were difficult but acceptable today. As for my accident, I was aquaplaning and in that situation, you are just a passenger in the car. In terms of the championship, obviously it would have been better for us if Fisichella had won this race, especially as Giancarlo drove a good race, anyway. But the gap to the championship leader is not so big, given there are still 13 races, so there is no need to be concerned about it. It's a shame my run of race finishes has come to an end. This is my first non-finish since Hockenheim in 2001."

JUAN PABLO MONTOYA (Williams-BMW, retired on Lap 25): "My car was really good initially when there was a lot of water on the track, and I passed several cars. Then the track started to dry, and I lost a bit of pace, so when I pitted I had a tire pressure change, which didn't improve the balance too much. After about 20 laps, the track was fairly dry almost everywhere apart from Turn 3, where there was still too much water, and I lost the car. Everyone who went off there had the same problem that I had: They were sliding too much because of aquaplaning."
