Nose of the McLaren MP 4/13.

|
|
Quite a few people checking out the McLaren
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Seeing that Ferrari and Gurney Eagle was a real treat.
|
|
|
|
|
A couple of cars from 1967.
|
|
|
|
|
Dan Gurney's Eagle Westlake.

Another classic F1 Ferrari.
|
|
|
|
|
Niki Lauda's 1976 312 T2.

Cockpit, nice ride! Jenson Button's first F1 car.
|
|
|
|
|
The historic F1 cars out racing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It was my frist time seeing these historic F1s running all at once.
|
|
|
|
|
Somehow I managed to get close to watch them come back in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dang hat got in my shot, but still, Lauda's old F1 Ferrari.

Huge crowd. It was chilly.

Mika was gaining on Schumi every lap,
|
|
|
|
|
but then his engine blew right in front of us.
|
|
|

|
|
|
and Schumi goes on for the win.
|
|

A happy day for this Ferrari fan.

Michael and Reubens, good job!
|
|
|

The win was the 42nd of Schumacher's career.
|
|
|
|
|
It also helped Schumacher finally gain the upper hand in his three-year struggle with Häkkinen as the win put him in a position to clinch his third Driver's title, the first for a Ferrari driver since Scheckter in 1979.
