He's obviously gone in for a wheel change. I say obviously because I can't see it
|
2
|
With half the race gone, there is half the race still to go
|
3
|
Do my eyes deceive me, or is Senna's Lotus sounding rough ?
|

|
Anything happens in Grand Prix racing and it usually does
|
5
|
Alboreto has dropped back up to fifth place
|
6
|
As you look at the first four, the significant thing is that Alboreto is 5th
|
7
|
I can't imagine what kind of problem Senna has. I imagine it must be some sort of grip problem
|
8
|
He is shedding buckets of adrenalin in that car
|
9
|
It's raining and the track is wet
|
10
|
And there's just a few more corners for Nigel Mansell to go to win the Canadian Grand Prix...and...he's going rather slow....HE'S STOPPING HE'S STOPPING!
|
11
|
and this is the third placed car about to lap the second placed car
|
12
|
...Cruel luck for Alesi, second on the grid. That's the first time he had started from the front row in a Grand Prix, having done so in Canada earlier this year...
|
13
|
And there's the man in the green flag!
|
14
|
The Jordan factory is at the factory gates
|
15
|
...and there's no damage to the car.....except to the car itself.
|
16
|
The beak of Ayrton Senna's chicken is pulling ahead
|
17
|
and I interrupt myself to bring you this....
|
18
|
This is an interesting circuit because it has inclines, and not just up, but down as well.
|
19
|
Only a few more laps to go and then the action will begin, unless this is the action, which it is.
|
20
|
This has been a great season for Nelson Piquet, as he is now known, and always has been
|
21
|
And the first five places are filled by five different cars.
|
22
|
...the lead is now 6.9 seconds. In fact it's just under 7 seconds
|
23
|
Tambay's hopes , which were nil before, are absolutely zero now.
|
24
|
I'm applying intelligence and observation to the situation...
|
25
|
Schumacher's appeal for ignoring the chequered flag is next Tuesday.
|
26
|
...but Here is Now and There is Damon Hill...
|
27
|
We're watching the Finnish Driver who is third, but he won't for very much llllong...oh yeah, he might be actually
|
28
|
And an enormous gap building before Mika Hakkinen goes through in third position...when I say enormous it's 1.5 seconds
|
29
|
Schumacher is still the fastest man on the track, not only by virtue of the fact that he leads the Australian Grand Prix, but he also holds the fastest lap
|
30
|
...and he's lost both right front tyres
|
31
|
Alesi is in second place and Hill is in second place...
|
32
|
As you can see, visually, with your eyes...
|
33
|
Andrea de Cesaris...the man who has won more Grands Prix than anyone else without actually winning one of them.
|
34
|
I hate to be a Jeremiah, but I have to tell you that the clouds are lowering...
|
35
|
And there's a dry line appearing in the tunnel… Obvious really as it has a roof
|
36
|
Nigel Mansell - the man of the race - the man of the day - the man from the Isle of Man
|
37
|
The atmosphere is so tense you could cut it with a cricket stump
|
38
|
Alain Prost is in a commanding second place
|
39
|
We're now on the 73rd lap and the next one will be the 74th.
|
40
|
Mansell is slowing it down, taking it easy. Oh no he isn't! It's a lap record.
|
41
|
This race will actually develop into a Grand Prix
|
42
|
..and Damon Hill is following Damon Hill
|
43
|
Jean Alesi is 4th and 5th
|
44
|
And that just shows you how important the car is in Formula One racing
|
45
|
And he's done that in a whisker under 10 seconds, call it 9.7 in round figures.
|
46
|
Into lap 53, the penultimate last lap but one
|
47
|
I'll stop my startwatch
|
48
|
And I usually say that if anything is going to go wrong with the car, it has done by now, but I'm not going to say that about Jacques Villeneuve.... Oh, I already have.
|
49
|
He will not produce a winner, but if he can produce second, it will be the next best thing.
|
50
|
I don't make mistakes. I make prophecies which immediately turn out to be wrong
