  • From this race to the end of the season, Jarno Trulli drove the number 11 Jordan car instead of the number 12, which was given to Alesi.
  • Eddie Irvine spun out his Jaguar at the first corner at the start.
  • The 1-2 finish by Schumacher and Rubens Barrichello meant that Ferrari clinched their third consecutive Constructor's Championship.
