Yoong managed to keep it together to come home second. Driving four laps in Monte Carlo with only 5th gear, and only conceding one place, very impressive. The other cars weren't far behind, as his problem occured behind the Safety Car. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nichosnz 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2002 Not that there is much in it though. In 1973 the Lotus 72 went around 81mph around Monaco over a race distance in 2001 the Minardi went about 86mph so it is quite close between the two of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nichosnz 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2002 Webber did well didn't he the only team that had both cars ahead of him was Toyota. Both Saubers, BARs, Jaguars and Arrows were behind as well as 1 car from each unmentioned team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
