Just finished watching the race from Barcelona. I think this is helped a
lot by it being a less difficult circuit on which to pass. Great racing.
Villeneuve won, in one of the best cars, but a good drive from Panis for
2nd place, after being 12th on the grid. Panis could have been challenging
Jacques at the end if Irvine had not held him (Panis) up. Irvine was given
a 10 sec penalty, but that didn't help Olivier.
Necessary Audi content: I have been hooked on Formula 1 since I attended
Audi performance driving courses at Goodwood (not NY!), Nurburgring
(twice), Monza, and Estoril. Worth every penny!
