Japan

[Number Juan]

Ross Brawn: Ross Brawn reckons that Schuey has an unfair advantage at Suzuka. Because it’s a circuit that really sorts out the men from the boys, Schumacher’s monumental ability stands out even more.

As Brawn says: "It’s like Spa. You see the real difference between the good and medium drivers and that’s one of the reasons Michael has had so much success there."

so then it looks like JPM and Jenson Button will prosper

Button?! No he's rubbish, Montoya will prosper though.

We'll see if Ross was right, this weekend.

Mika has had two wins (1998-99), two seconds (1995,2000), two thirds (1993,96) and a fourth (1997). In fact, Mika has finished every Japanese GP he's competed in since 1992, where he retired from third place in a Lotus.

TGF has had 3 wins (95,97,2000) and 3 seconds (1994,96,99). His first three visits to Japan in 1991-93 ended in two collisions and an engine failure.

Looks like these two are the men.

If Suzuka is the "ultimate" test, this actually reflects rather well on young Bunsen as he out qualified Ralf there last year on his first ever visit.
