BAR (British/American Racing) Team have a British driver Jenson Button, who's crap and has already crashed out, and his best pal (a Canadian) called Jacques who is currently 11th or 12th.

Must've been the pre-race drinking competition 
I think there is such a ritual here in the States, judging by the fact that half the cars in the race today (no fucking clue what it's called, surely something like "The Wal-Mart 500", etc) are already out due to a massive wreak in the 4th lap.
Barichello has retired, looks like I've put the jinx on him
Mind you, he cannae blame me for the last 8 years!
What a race
Crashes, excitement, cars on fire......superb stuff
And I think Fisichella wins the race after the red flag to end the race early. Well done to the Jordan team if they have, if not I think it goes to Coulthard.....so it could be another win for the Scot, it's all very confusing
The latest is that Raikkonen has won after a countback to the 53rd lap!
Well done to the Flying Fin......I think.
That was the most chaotic GP I ever saw. Rain, accidents, safety car on track, spins, crashes, red flags, the third place not able to go the podium...
Barrichello? It's a pity really, but I never expect anything from him anyway.
tell me just one thing. it was unnecessary giving raikkonen the victory over fisichella. what harm does fisichella do winning this race? he won´t win another one with that car, he won´t be competing head-to-head for championship, he was in the first place, and MAYBE he crossed the line before the red flag came out. so why don´t the authorities evaluate things as they should for once? give the race to fisichella. he was the moral winner after all. i said!

These are the rules mate! Remember Ayrton Senna and his Toleman at Monaco GP in 1984? Nobody gave him the victory and there is no point in giving the victory to Fisichella now.
Alonso still finishes third despite that massive shunt. He's ok by the way. And Webber still finishes in the points despite his crash. Fucked or what?
Apparently Rubens ran out of fuel.
Finally an exciting Grand Prix :D
For some reason, this excitement used to happen only here, in Montreal... or Spa-Francorchamps, but there is no GP in Beligum this year.. :smoke:
I remember one year when Damon Hill, Jacques Villeneuve and Michael Schumacher all smashed in the same wall.. 3 world champions.. was funny to see :D
What was Alonso thinking ?!?!?!

Well, Fisichella had one stop left, Raikonen was the real leader of this race, so if the red flag wasn't there, Raikonen was going for the win anyways.
Only Coulthard got screwed in this process
And yes, Jacques finished in the points , what a pity.. I hope he gets a good car next season, to show everyone he's still the best!

No, no, no! Senna never managed to pass Prost! Fisico passed Raikkonen fair-handedly!

Nobody gave him the victory and there is no point in giving the victory to Fisichella now. i know the rules but i´m a sentimental guy. i still want it to be perfect. you know: the poor winning the rich, the weak winning the strong, etc. and this was a perfect situation to do that. fisico was my hero of the day and nobody would have been threatened by that. there´re some things that might be out of the rules but who said the rules are fair? fisichella should have win the race. that would have been fair! HE deserved it. rules or not rules....

Prost stopped just short of the line didn't he? Senna passed him and naturally assumed he'd won.

If I remember correctly, the race was stopped (by Jacky Iccx, serving that year as race director) when Senna was fast approaching a struggling Prost... but he didn't overcame him (he would, in fact, but only if the race had just one or two more laps)!

That's what I recall too. 
Alonso again in the podium...incredible. More points in three races than the other spanish drivers of all time

Will he catch up with the best Canadian driver? 
Actually, this could be a good poll, who was/is the best, Gilles or Jacques Villeneuve :D

please, nic. with all the respect.... jacques could win a million races and one hundred championships and STILL won´t come even near his father. he was my idol when i was a little kid. i remember watching every race of him. even though reutemann was argentine, and even though he was fighting for the championship my heart always was with gilles. you know, you cheer for your countryman but when someone is so good that may become an idol even not winning any championship at all, you just have to let yourself go. and i cried a lot when he died. i was watching that on live TV... and he wasn´t better than his son only because he died. but because he was great, unique, the king without a crown!

Almanso, I'm with you on this one! I'm not ashamed to tell everyone that I cried like a baby the day Gilles died. Jacques is nowhere near as good as his dad was. And as a person... please!
Originally posted by eduardo maura What do you think about Alonso?: Real future great driver? Only a fake?
Neither. A good driver, but NOT a future star.
Problem is, I was 8 or something when Gilles Villeuve died, so I'm too young to actually have seen him race (and care)...
Jacques Villeneuve is the reason why I started to watch F1...
