A1-Ring... Made it's debut in the Formula one calendar in 1997, and Jean has still not yet
finished here. In 1998 he made a stunning qualifying performance and was second on the
grid with only the Benetton of Ginancarlo Fisichella in front, sadly Jean hooked up with
he's friend Giancarlo at lap 22 and both were out of the race, Jean was able to spin
around to try to reenter the race, but the Sauber had a new longer first gear and it was
up-hill so he stalled it. In Austria we drive with low downforce.
