This race goes down as one of the most exciting races of all time.
Whatever could go wrong for 85% of the field did go wrong, and what we ended up with was one of the most insane podiums and winner in F1 history.
A new team would win, An Italian would take his first EVER podium (But the last for his team)
Minardi also scored their first point since the 1995 Australian GP with Pedro Lamy!
The championship battle had to take a back seat with this one!
