Malaysian Grand Prix

18-Mar-2001

That was a stunning race right from the start.Schumi gets to drive a spare car and spins it due to the excessive oil in the track. In a while it starts raining heavily and both Schumi and Rubens go into the pits at the same time to change to wet tyres and comes out of pit garage to join in 10th and 11th position. After which there was no stopping them.In 5-6 laps schumi leads the race.



Both the Ferrari cars were easily quicker than the rest of the lot with Schumi winning the race and Rubens finishing second and Ferrari Celebrate.

i still remember that race... It was early days in F1.

Actually Ferrari was leading the race before both went into the gravel. As usual namma Steve Slater-um, Chris Goodwin-um Mclaren-a support panni pechaa pesinaanga.

Appuram varuna baghavaan karunai kaamicharu...Both went to the pits together and Michael was standing behind Rubens for 1.48 min. Joined 10,11 and eventually won the race.

I also remember Mika getting caught behind Frentzen for the entire race. That race made me an ardent Ferrari fan
