Mika pass Schumy

Hi drivers, I stupendously miss the Belgium GP in the weekend, plus the overtake of the decade (apparently). Do anybody know anywhere where I can download the clip?

go to rec.autos.sport.f1, i saw a message there with a link to the clip.

Reminded me of Mansell's pass on Senna at Hungary as they came up to a backmarker. Also it was a bit rich of Ron to complain about Schumacher's aggressive defence being dangerous when Hakkinen himself took a big chance that Zonta wouldn't move over during the pass. Could have been a *big* accident, that. - Michael

Oh sorry but have you ever seen a backmarker move all the way to the grass on such as wide track, don't think so. Backmarkers never just change lines at those speeds. And look at Zonta's head he didn't even have a clue Mika was beside him but he still kept going straight on. The fact that Michael had tried to push Mika of the track the lap before, made the pass even more impressive. It was a beautifull pass under hard circumstances that's why Ron liked it so much (and because it was Mika ofcourse).

"Near the end of the race I saw Schumacher and Hakkinen in my mirrors as I was going through Eau Rouge so I slowed on the following straight and just stayed in the middle of the track to give them room," Zonta said. "It was an amazing view as they went past on either side of my car." http://ww4.f1-live.com/f1-2000/en/ACTU/infos/detail/000828124153.html Seems like Zonta with his situational awareness has to be thanked, otherwise that desperate attempt from Mika could easily have ended in one of F1's worst accidents. Unlike for instance Zanardi's move on Herta, which was stunning but not life threatening to either of the drivers. Oh well, if you succeed you are a hero ... JanL

http://f-1.sovintel.ru/00/spa/spa7.html This will play it automatically - it's a .asf file. You can also right-click on the link on the actual web page that pops up first to save the file to disk. You can try changing "spa7" to get other clips - there are 8 in all (I think), and 7 and 8 are replays of the "The Pass" from different cameras. Gotta love those Russians :) Enjoy!

Aren't they? The first I saw of it was a message on the F1 newsgroup today, with a link to "spa5", which is Mika's spin. Started playing around, and got a BIG smile on my face. Haven't successfully gotten anything from other races - trying to work out the naming convention. For instance, plugging in "hockenheim" doesn't work, but "monaco" does, just haven't succeeded in getting any files yet.

HEY, that Senna things was LAST decade. That's why this pass is so easily called the pass of the decade... it's the 2000 season.

Certainly not - I'm not a fan of any particular team, I just want to see good racing. And I should say Sunday's race certainly lived up to that - it's a pity there aren't more racetracks as good as Spa. Just to balance things up, I think Schumacher is well overrated by many when they say he's by far the best driver. Hakkinen is at least as good in dry weather. Schumacher comes into his element in variable conditions like last weekend.

I've got no axe to grind here, I don't care who wins the WC - I just think Ron protests too much. I certainly don't blame Mika for taking the chance - any racing driver worth his salt would have done the same thing. - Michael

Yep, realized last night watching the videos that they TELL YOU where the main site is :) DOH! "Dan Belcher" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Actually, that Senna thing was the decade-before-last. 1989. How time flies............... The pass actually reminded me more of the Mansell/Piquet duel at Silverstone in '87, just for the drama of the chase. You knew he was going to catch him, you just didn't know what would happen when he got there. Also reminded me of the Senna/Prost battle at Hockenheim in '89, except that Prost's 6th gear gave up before we got to see an overtaking attempt (which might never have come - turbulence was starting to become an issue even then).
