1998 Japanese GP *Round 16* (ITV Commentary - Murray & Martin)

This it it.

Michael Schumacher Vs Mika Hakkinen.

4 points.

If Schumacher won, he & Mika would have the same amount of wins in a year, but the title would go to Hakkinen IF he finished second on countback of the Finn having more 2nd places than Schumacher.

Tension was thick! But drama would unfold even before the start...

(Also, this would be the last ever race for Shinji Nakano, Esteban Tuero and sadly, the whole Tyrrell team)
