EAU ROUGE: GP3/F12K

Has anyone pulled off a "Jacques Villeneuve" on this great corner? <grin> -Cheers!

He spun out and totally lost it and took the big shit last year. The crash was BIG TIME too. -- [email hidden] "Steve Marsh" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:tzSl5.841$[email hidden]... > What did Jacques do there? > > Steve > Regular Racer <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:29pl5.863$[email hidden]... > > Has anyone pulled off a "Jacques Villeneuve" on this great corner? <grin> > > > > -Cheers! > > > > > >

Wasn't it BAR?

Steve, see what Jacques did in SPA in 1999 here http://members.home.net/f1gallery/movies.html I am not sure what happened to him with Williams. Anybody has footage?

The reason was: the bottom of the car had hit the track (suspension setup to soft), the same problem for Zonta. "Gregor Veble" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Yes, both BAR's had almost identical accidents at Eau Rouge last year. I also remember JV having a similar type of accident in 1998 in the Williams also during practice.
