Yeah, but he was still only 20th overall!

Fast in the speed trap but slow in general... seems to prove that there's not much wrong with their Ford engine, they just need some serious chassis work!

If only that was true!!
Problem is we have a 3 year old chassis (it was OK when it was new but isn't ideal now) and a two year old engine.

If the reports are to be beleived we will get same engine as Jag next year and a new chassis. :o)

I think Bas was probably running with no fuel and no wing with the engine rev limiter switched off. still its nice to beat Mr Schumacher.
