This was a bit of a bizzare race!

Drivers Stalling, new drivers in new teams, a weird situation where a car was up on its jacks at the start lights and a HUUUUUGE Shunt for Luciano Burti would mean it would be his last ever F1 start.

It would also be Tarso Marques' last F1 start for Minardi as he would be replaced by Alex Yoong after this race.

It would also be the last podium for the 3rd place man for his current team and his last until 2003.

The last EVER points finish for the man in 6th which would bring a sad end to what SHOULD have been more in his career.

Ferrari would be the 1st Constructor to reach 650 race starts and with it, they would break Alain Prosts all time win record.
