bajo39 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2005 For those of you fortunate enough to live in North America, after enjoying Inside Grand Prix earlier, you now have the 1995 Portugese GP at Estoril to look forward to. Note: this race features a pay-driving legend in Jean-Denis Deletraz of Switzerland making one of the only three spectacular F1 appearances he made in his career. He qualified more than 12 seconds off the pace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bajo39 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2005 I'm looking forward to it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Fantastic move Michael put on Damon there, excellent! Damon was caught totally unawares. Such a beautiful circuit Estoril... More on Jean-Denis Deletraz's race: After qualifying more than 7 seconds slower than his teammate in equal machinery, with a time that would only qualify him 22nd for the F3000 support race, Deletraz began the race and went nearly 40 seconds down on the leader within three laps. He was lapped after 7 and retired in 7 more. Surely one of the worst performances in F1 history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Null 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2005 I wish I could get speedtv!! In germany they repeat quali and the race loads on a few different channels and their programmes are much (and I mean much!!) longer than the british F1 programmes but center around the current GP. Much better than the British programmes, with better commentary too (and schumi comes across as being approcable and friendly!) and they have niki lauda...
