Pre-Race Report

Championship standings

After six rounds, Häkkinen leads by 17 points over Coulthard, with Schumacher a further five points behind his McLaren teammate.

Previous race

At Monaco, Häkkinen won from pole position, led every lap and set the fastest lap — a grand chelem. Coulthard’s engine blew mid-race while running second. Fisichella brought his Benetton home second, with Irvine third. Schumacher made contact with Wurz at the Loews hairpin and spent time in the pits for repairs, eventually finishing well down the order.
