- After his enormous crash during the last training session at Estoril 
(Portugal) Gerhard Berger does it again. He lost control over his Benetton-
Renault at a speed of 180 km/h on the wet circuit and crashed his car into 
the safety rails. The Benetton suffered severe rear damage, but fortunately
Berger was not hurt. 
Villeneuve was fastest today followed by his team-mate. Verstappen drove his
first few laps in the Arrows and came to a time of 1,5 sec faster then the 
Arrows did last year.
Times:
1. Villeneuve   1:21.01
2. Hill 1:21.57
3. Schumacher 1:21.96
4. Alesi 1:22.37
5. Irvine 1:22.89
6. Barrichello 1:23.05
7. Verstappen 1:23.28


- Schumacher is now getting so much out of the Ferrari because he gets it 
all. He has 60 engineers and mechanics, three cars and six engines at his 
disposal. The chief-mechanic Bernad has said: "Since it is clear that 
Michael is driving for us, every budget is granted." Alesi and Berger could
only dream of such support.

- The BBC has lost the coverage of the Formula One to ITV for an amount of 
60 million pounds. The BBC was "disappointed" about this.
