Hungarian GP  Hungaroring August 16:th
Me: Hugary is not my favorite circuit, but it was a good race, Shumacher Shumacher showed why he is the top driver in F1. Yes he really is, he is not the fastes all the time, but who else could do what he did? The strategy... well everything. I'm certain that Jean wold beat him in nine out of ten laps, but the lap Michael was fastest was the important one.

Jean Alesi:
" Once again I had a good start, and all afternoon I was quicker than both Benettons. We were able to run very close together fighting initially for sixth place, but on the 21st lap the electronic throttle bipper didn't work properly when I was changing down a gear. The rear end locked up momentarily and I ran wide and slid into the gravel, but I was able to get straight back on to the track and didn't actually lose too much time. After that I really pushed very hard, and our strategy and pitwork was very good again.
The car was very, very consistent, and we just need a little bit more of everything to be closer to the top guys. I needed maybe another lap and I would have caught Hakkinen for the last point, but as it was the race was not long enough!"

Johnny Herbert:
"In retrospect I screwed up with my set-up in qualifying, trying something that didn't come off. This morning we reverted to the standard set-up and the car was totally different. Unfortunately, when you start 15th it's tough. We all lost a hell of a lot of time behind Diniz, but once I got by the car felt very good and my times were competitive.
The team's strategy was very intelligent, with our short middle stint, and quick stops helped make up ground on Ralf. Unfortunately the tyres had gone off completely over the last 10 laps, and I lost it on the penultimate corner, so he repassed me for ninth. But for me it wasn't a bad race, and we have a good direction for the future."
