F3000 Hungaroring Race Results
1. Patrick Friesacher
2. Bjorn Wirdheim 3. Townsend Bell 4. Tonio Liuzzi 5. Giorgio Pantano 6. Raffaele Giammaria 7. Jaroslav Janis 8. Enrico Toccacelo 9. Tony Schmidt 10. BCN Special #1 11. Sam Hancock 12. BCN Special #2 13. Ricardo Sperafico First win for Friesacher, first podium for Bell. Wirdheim the first to make a clean stop on lap 8, followed by Pantano a lap later, whose right rear wheel mean nearly had his fingers amputated. The Red Bull twins ran up front way too long. Team then proceeded to butcher Friesacher's stop. They topped that by butchering Liuzzi's stop even more. After all the stops the order was Wirdheim, Pantano, Friesacher, Bell, Liuzzi. The early stoppers clearly had an advantage which I suspect most teams will pick up on by Monza. Lots of hard racing and blocking for the last 15 laps but it was too artificial for my liking. |

The Red Bull stops can't've been too buthcered considering the team's results.
Surely the Hungarian organisers are now entitled to a pretty massive rebate here, after only 13 of the promised 16 cars showed up? I haven't seen such a pathetic grid (in terms of number and calibre) for a major series in eyars. |

I stopped watching this series because it became too boring. And now I can't be bothered anymore, I'm only checking the results. Who were in the two BCN Special cars?

Friesacher lost 6 seconds to Wirdheim during his stop. Liuzzi lost even more. The only reason there was "racing" was because the Red Bull drivers had the faster cars and fresher tires and were artificially shuffled back to the pack thru no fault of their own.

By the way, Friesacher had a chance to show that he was really on top of things by winning despite a little bauble by his crew. He's got to be happy. Last edited by BobbyB; 24 Aug 2003 at 02:23. |

Liuzzi penalised
http://www.fia.com/FreePress/F3000_G...gary_Class.htm
Liuzzi has been penalised 25 seconds having apparently "forced another car off the track during an overtaking manoevre". (haven't seen the race - to what incident is this referring?) The result is that VL has been demoted to 9th place and out of the points. Though he has the right to appeal... |

Liuzzi tried a mega-banzai move on Pantano on the last corner of the last lap. Poor Pantano got screwed out of 2 positions twice just having to avoid banzai moves.
