GP2: Oil Leak

by Richard Yi » Wed, 31 Jul 1996 04:00:00

I tried a non-championship race at Suzuka today. Started at the middle of the grid. After 2(out
of 8) laps I suddenly saw a yellow flag and in a split second I saw a patch of oil on the track.
I managed to steer to avoid it and then I saw an AI car spun off in the middle of the track,
about 50m from the oil patch. It is a fantastic experience for me. I was wondering what would
happen if my car rolled over the oil.....

I was up 10 seconds on Coulthard with 4 laps left when I saw yellow flags at Monza.  In a previous
race I had slowed for yellow flags and been passed, so I stayed on the throttle (through Lesmos) and
lost it totally on some oil...
