After the horrific leg breaking crash for Michael Schumacher at the last round in Britain, F1 returned to the classic Austrian track with Mclaren looking to take advantage and Eddie Irvine trying to become the new title challenger.

How would a Schumacher-less race go for the Scuderia with Mika Salo replacing the German.

This would also be the last race Pedro Diniz would score points in.
