The lap times have dropped by more than 2 seconds a lap as a result of competing tyre manufacturers. Jacques Villeneuve hits the back of Ralf Schumacher on lap 5 at high speed and crashes into the retaining wall. He is not hurt but a safety marshal is killed by flying debris. Olivier Panis finishes 4th but is penalised 25 seconds for passing under yellow flags. He is classified 7th.
