| 2003 Canadian GP
- Race - Michael goes top with Canada win |
|
|
|
| Michael
has won a battle of brothers
for a Canadian GP victory
that has powered him
to the top of the Formula 1
championship for the first
time this season. |
| He said
"This was the
ideal result at the
end of a very tough and tight race.
I had to be careful to look
after the brakes so I did not
push too hard at first, just maintaining
my pace after a very good
start. I was able to stay close
to Ralf and only really
pushed hard in the period around
the pit stops. There was a time when I
thought I was going to pass
Ralf, but then his
tyres seemed to improve
and I could not get by. But
the mechanics did a great job in the pit
stop to put me in the lead. Of course, it
is important to be leading the championship
in what I have always said will be a hard
season with a tough fight
to the end. As for having 999 points, in
Germany that number means
you have to buy everyone a drink,
so we will see what
happens tonight!" |
