The 1997 Italian Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held at Monza on September 7, 1997. Jean Alesi, starting from pole position, led the race until the halfway stage; however, David Coulthard, who had jumped from sixth on the grid into third place coming out of the first corner, got ahead of the Frenchman courtesy of a faster pit-stop, and held on to win the race by less than two seconds, gaining some measure of revenge for an incident in the French Grand Prix earlier that season, in which Alesi recklessly pushed Coulthard off the track on the final lap to rob the Scot of his fifth place. The top five finishers and Mika Häkkinen ran in two separate processional orders throughout - Häkkinen dropped out of the points when he flat spotted his front tyres after his pitstop; before his pitstop he ran out of fuel just metres from the entrance of the pits, thus costing him a chance to come out in the lead because he was the last car among the top teams to come in after being out the longest.

Twitter Page, Follow me! www.twitter.com So here it is. My 13th video but certainly not unlucky video to the Great flying Finn, Mika Hakkinen. A Tribute to the man who was Michael Schumacher's great rival. Hakkinen drove for McLaren through bad times & good times, were he was world champion in 1998 & 1999. Retired in 2001, Hakkinen will not be forgotton. Songs in order; Two Steps from hell - Heart of courage Two steps from hell - Protectors of the earth.
