JAPANESE GP COMMENTS
"Suzuka is a great circuit with a crucial sequence of S- bends in the first section which can determine whether you are set for a quick lap or not. It should be a very
exciting race and I'm looking forward to it.''
~Hakkinen
"I have finished a Japanese Grand Prix in every points-scoring position from sixth to second so this year it would be just he right time to go one better and
win it for the first time.'' 
~Irvine
"Because of the undulations of the lay-out you have to keep very busy in the cockpit,'' 
~ Rubens Barrichello. 
``one of the few circuits where local knowledge can have a large influence on a driver's lap time. It gives an advantage to those who have raced in the Japanese series earlier in their career.'' 
Pat Symonds, technical director of the Benetton team,99
