    Adelaide 1986 is a classic, so is Suzuka 2000.
    And there's no way people will ever forget Jerez 1997.
    Would it be possible, to play forever?
    The conclusion reached was that a player is inevitably doomed to lose.

    Spa 1998. Not only was there the massive crash at the start, there was the whole thing about Coulthard smashing into Schumacher and in the end I think it was Hill or something bizzare who won it.

    The dog fight between Arnoux and Gilles Villeneuve in Dijon in 1979. Three laps of spectacular driving, with only the second place being at stake, as Jabouille was already way ahead, to record the first ever turbo victory.

    Mika Hakkinens overtaking manouver over M$ down the straight, when they were both going around a lapped car (Jordan or BAR?) mika goes on the inside (squeezed between the lapped car and the edge of the track) M$ goes on the outside, side by side mika holds the line and pushes M$ out as he holds the line around the turn, mika wins the race. I dont remember the circuit sorry.

    It was Spa, at the end of the straight after the Raidillon climb. The car that was sandwiched was Ricardo Zonta' s BAR

    Monaco 1970. Jack Brabham leading the whole race till a few laps before the checkered, brakes late and slides into a barrier, allowing Jochen Rindt to go by for the win. Didn't even see it live, Wide World of Sports showed it that afternoon in midwestern USA, but watching it I had a feeling SOMETHING was going to happen to allow Rindt to win.

    Damon Hill's eyes staring forlornly at his Williams front wishbone after Schumacher delibrately rammed him off the track to win the drivers title; the end of a very long night.

    Harumph.

    Unfortunately Ayrtons tragic demise. I remember watching it at about two in the morning. I had dosed off and woke just in time to see it. I went to bed and when I woke up I thought it must have been a dream. Murray Walker could barely speak.

    How about Jerez '86? Even better than Dijon '79, because it was for the win, not a mere second place.
    Would it be possible, to play forever?

    J.Y.Stewart at Nurburgring in 1968 - when it was 14 miles per lap.
    He lead and won the race by 4 minutes in rain and poor visibility and he was driving with a broken wrist.
    If you get a chance, see the video of this race and watch how in control he is at all times. Awesome

    Then 30 years later trying to match it in Grand Prix Legends

    My favorite F1 moment is when Mika Hakkinen (several seasons ago) at Spa used the lapped car of J. Villenueve to pass Michael Schumacher with a couple laps remaining and went on to win the race. The pass was one of the most exciting passes that I have seen over the past couple of seasons.
