The Jordan mechanics, after the race, discovered a crack in Damon's wheel which they said would have probably put him out of the race if it had gone on for another couple of laps. Also, at the original start Coulthard lost control when he got wheel spin when he went over a drain cover, it was only after he'd started to spin that he then got tagged by Irvine and then half the field. If that was today they'd have to cancel the race seeing as they don't run spare cars anymore.

The visibility was that poor the drivers couldn't see their own steering wheel in normal conditions, nevermind when they came up behind another car. One of the luckiest people that day was the guy in the stands who had a wheel fly right past him when the crash at the start happened. If it had hit him it'd have taken his head off.

Michael did not look like someone who wanted to overtake, rather someone who expected the driver in front to be faster. Telemetry showed that DC was at 50% (don't trust my memory for the exact number ;) ) while Michael was at 100% coming out of the corner. Was that deliberate from DC? Maybe not, but it certainly was intentionally frustrating MS. As mentioned below, DC did eventually, years later, acknowledge that what he did was wrong.

Saw this race live, one of the most dramatic ever. Coulthard either did it on purpose or was extremely careless to taxi on the race line in those conditions. Today he would have been penalised for impeding another driver, but those were different times. It cost Schumacher the title, and showed how on edge things were at Ferrari during those bitter years. Looking back, it is almost miraculous how Schumacher's temperament eventually worked out with Ferrari. As for Coulthard, kept doing these small errors or mistakes, impeding him from reaching the heights where his raw speed could otherwise had led.

And Spa almost got deleted of the calendar this year. It's because South Africa was unable to complete it's race track that we still have a race in Belgium. Next year is probably the last time they will race there. It's also a drivers favorite. The race this year was incredible with overtakes in almost every lap and that in comparison with those street tracks where the standing at lap 10 is also the final standing at the end of the race.

I remember seeing footage at the time of Coultard on the formation lap with something flying off his car, probably the bit of suspension that failed at La Source - the real cause of Coultard veering violently to the right! Stop the video at 2:58 and you'll se his left front is almost off. Go Back and stop it at 2:46 and you'll see Coultard on the outside of the track with Irvine behind at to the right of him. Now you could argue that Irvine hit him, forcing him into the barrier and that would be why Coultard's left front suspension had failed. If that was the case then the momentum of his rear end would have sent him into a spin and he would have hit the right-hand barrier arse-first. Now stop the video at 3:06 and you'll see Irvine just coming into frame (with his rear wing cartwheeling down the grass and his front wing yet to come off after coliding with Schumi's brother or was it Graham Hill's son?), had Irvine colided with Coultard then he would have been in front or at least alongside Coultard in order for him to send Coultard's front left into the barrier and he would have appeared in frame a lot sooner than he did, considering that was 8 seconds after Coultard veered to the right and 3 seconds after Coultard in his 1 wheeled bobsled appeared from the mist that is highly unlikely. How's this for a scenario: Irvine was to the rear and right of Coultard, Coultard's suspension fails, veering him violently across the track and into the right-hand barrier. As this happens Irvine brakes to avoid a collision and is rear-ended, causing his rear wing to come off.

You simply forgot something to tell. I remember that race very well! Coulthart had a lot of problems with his car and he went into the box and parked. Everybody thought he was out. But then a lot of laps later he appeared in the race again. With 10 laps after all the others. He managed that Schumacher came after him and then he drove a kind of fast, but Schumacher could catch up to him. And then suddenly Coulthart breaked way to early and hard, just in the same second, as Michael intended to overtake. In the spray Michael could not see this and crashed. Imho this crash was clearly intended by David and the team. They sent him out (with 10 laps back) on the track only for that reason, to stop Schumacher, because otherwise Michael would have won the championship. There was no other reason to take a far overlapped car back into the race. That never happened before and never after that incident!

@@GB-vn1tf He even stated it Google it urself u expert.

Your videos could very much do without the gay looking bitmoji cut scenes.

Im Belgian and i can say the weather is impresivible

Rain always makes for interesting racing

Remember it as a great race. Well done Jordon!!

I watched this live remember it like yesterday I even remember thinking something was going to happen and staying in to watch it and I wasn't even big into F1.

I remember that so well! Unbelievable.

Murray walker’s commentary is iconic😢

Props for pronouncing Villeneuve correctly! Lots of people don't get it right at all. Good video.

man what a race lol, i remember this live as a kid it was surreal , crazy everyone was fine as well, jumping into there new cars which you cant do anymore lol

I've only attended one GP in my life, and it was this one, I was there.🙂

7:15 It was never David's fault but Michael thought too big of himself to realize that.

“Oh, carnage everywhere!” That call by Derek Daly in the Speedvision broadcast was far better. Eat your heart out, Murray Walker!

Wow!!! Light years ago... F1 is so different . Memories&❤!!

Really enjoyed the video man keep it up 😄👍

Thanks mate ❤️ will do 👍🏻

Those yellow cars were iconic in F1

i remember watching that race..it was a blast..

Watching this live when it happened was an F1 moment in time. Murray Walker RIP, Michael Schumacher G.O.A.T

@12:25. WTF are those guys doing strolling across the track in the path of cars. In race conditions, in the wet, with very poor visibility. That's F1 in the 90's I suppose... 🤔

I was there as a 17 yo kid that saw its first F1 race. I was hooked from that moment on 😍

I remember watching this, it was crazy.

My favorite track. Its changed so much.

I watched it live in a pub on a lengthy lunch break from some IT overtime. Good times.

I watched this race omg! Crazy start.

07:20 Jean Todt went to Ron Dennis and asked for Coulthard to slow down to let Schumacher past, Coulthard obeyed but Schumacher wasn't ready for the sudden slow down and hit him up the rear. Coulthard should definitely have stayed in bed that day, there would have been no carnage at the start and Schumy would have won.

IMO the decision to not allow Ralf to race Damon for the win backfired on Eddie Jordan in the long run. Sure, he had Frentzen being an unlikely title challenger in '99 and finished 3rd in the constructors' standings (behind Ferrari and McLaren), but after that the team slipped down the pecking order before undergoing an ownership and name change almost every year in the mid 2000's (Jordan became Midland F1, then Spyker and then Force India, which stuck around for about 10 years and after that from the team's ashes Racing Point was born and it evolved into it's final form as of 2023 - Aston Martin Racing). Meanwhile although Ralf had to endure the 1999 season in the midfield with an inferior car and underpowered engine (which was basically 1997-spec Renault engine) for the year 2000 BMW would come with works support and Williams with Ralf and Juan-Pablo Montoya (who made his debut in 2001) became the closest rivals to Michael Schumacher and Ferrari's dominance in the early 2000's

7:23. DC and McLaren robbing MS of the 1998 world title right there

I was 8 years old and I remember this race more than any other in my life. My dad, my uncle, we all knew meanwhile the race it would be one of the most legendary races of all time. Two opinions: Coulthard knew exactly what he‘s doing, it was a disgusting cheapshot. Beside this crash you see both together at many F1 events smoking a cigar together, a proof of two great sportsmen. At least the discussion about heavy rain races is quite older. The F1 should never quit them because it depends to the sport.

Best GP id ever seen. This race is why i love car race

In my opinion one of the greatest races of all time is Spa 1995. Schumi drove from p16 in full rain on dry tires to the victory. As a Schumi fan it was a dream.

I watched this live, good times.

I watched that gp and remember it well.

Saw this race live....it was insane what happened
