roman numeral in the box

[edit]

it read 37 (XXXVII) instead of 29 (XXIX)

since the 2001 entry is 30 (XXX)and 1999 says 28 (XXVIII) this is a logical change

Infobox
  • 71 laps, 305.939 km (190.681 mi) — This doesn't appear to be in the body of the article
Background
Practice
  • In the first practice session, Barrichello made minor changes to the aerodynamic setup of his car, and was fastest... — Should this be "Barrichello made minor changes to the aerodynamic setup of his car before the first, and was fastest..." (the significant change being "before" rather than "in")?
  • The McLaren duo of Häkkinen and Coulthard, Michael Schumacher, Villeneuve, Prost's Jean Alesi... — This sentence makes it unclear which team some drivers are on; in particular, it seems to say that Schumacher and Villeneuve were part of a four-driver McLaren duo.
  • How many laps (or how much time) was each driver allotted per session?
  • Michael Schumacher went faster to go second — Went faster than what?
  • he spun under braking for the Senna S chicane — I'm confused here. He under braked for the chicane, and thus spun? Or he spun under (whatever that means) while braking for the chicane? (Note that I slightly reworded this sentence for prose considerations, but am equally confused by both wordings.)
Qualifying

Warm-up

  • set laps in their spare cars — What does this mean?
  • for his teammate Fisichella — Wouldn't it be for himself?
    • No the FIA source stated that car was setup for Fisichella MWright96 (talk) 07:57, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • Is it that Wurz needed a spare car; the spare car was at the time setup for Fisichella; so Wurz took it and had it setup for him?
        • Wurz had to take the spare car because his previous one stalled. It is not stated in any of the sources that Wurz had the spare Benetton car setup for him after it was setup for Fisichella, so I have removed that piece of information. MWright96 (talk) 07:53, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • Got it. My confusion here was that I was reading the sentence to mean "after Wurz took the spare car, it was set up for Fisichella," rather than "Wurz took the spare car, which had previously been set up for Fisichella."

Post-race
Race classification
  • Drivers who scored championship points are denoted in bold and by a ‡ — Why? It's already clear who scored points from the column marked "points."
