Plus Schumacher didn't quite seem to be pushing to overtake Hakkinen at Suzuka either
I still think he drove a half-hearted race there to deny Irvine breaking the Ferrari WDC slump.

Irvine lost that championship all by himself. Didn't he binned it in FP or QLF? |

Yeaa he binned it in quali but being Schummy's bitch in the first part of the year hurt him more. |

Not having wheels ready at the Nürburgring didn't help him either. |

Irvine was lucky to even have a shot in the first place, with Hakkinen's misfortunes at A1, Hockenheim and other races, and mistakes at Imola and Monza. Of course you need luck sometimes, but Irvine would have been one of the least deserving drivers to win a title, in my opinion. |

Off-topic (Yet we are discussing the 99 season, in the 2018 Chinese GP thread), but: Being a McLaren fan at the time (Mika fan, actually), I didn't noticed it back then, but man, that Ferrari F399 was such a beautiful machine. |

IMHO the 99 season as a whole was the best-looking of the entire grooved tyres era. |

To me, the late 90's best looking car, though: Arrows A19 |

Yes to 1997 cars. The A19 is hugely overrated. It’s merely a narrow version A18 in black livery. I was never a fan. People love it only because of the dull and lazy paint job. |

they kept it simple, maybe that's why so many love it even though my favourite Arrows is the A8 from 1985 with the Delonghi sponsorship and some BMW stripes |

My favourite cars are from 1991. The Jordan 191 is one of the best looking racing cars ever built. |
