Mike Schumi could take one giant leap forward to his 4th world championship with a win here.

But as the story usually goes at a home GP, it is never that simple.

Montoya took his first ever pole.

One HUGE Crash on the start line would have implications for the rest of the race.

Few things to note, this was the last time the race was held on this classic track.

The race for 2002 would be on a shorter version of the circuit.

This would also be BARs 2nd and last podium until 2004, and the last for a Canadian Driver until 2017.
