Previous race
At Monaco, Montoya took his first victory in nearly two years, leading from the pit stops with Räikkönen close behind for the final fifteen laps. The race featured no on-track overtakes — the order decided entirely by the start and the pit stop sequence. Ralf Schumacher took pole but fell to fourth as Montoya used a single lap of clear air after Ralf’s first stop to jump ahead. Michael Schumacher completed the podium. Jenson Button took no part after a heavy practice crash on Saturday morning.
Practice
Antônio Pizzonia sets the fastest time in the first session, six tenths ahead of Montoya and Michael Schumacher. The second session is led by Barrichello, ahead of Michael Schumacher and Jacques Villeneuve. The Ferraris of Schumacher and Barrichello lead the third session, ahead of Giancarlo Fisichella.
