The result last year in Las Vegas was definitely a big team effort, ... The engineering office definitely spent a lot of time thinking about what was going to be the best option especially for the race setup because it was pretty easy flat and everybody was able to make it easy around the place. It was about having the proper amount of downforce and being able to go through traffic with your foot on the floor and that's what we achieved and we had a really spectacular 1-2 with very exciting finish of the race.

It's very easy for this crisis to end, and that is for (Iraqi President) Saddam Hussein to simply to allow free access to all sites by the U.N. inspectors and let the U.N. inspection team do its job, not politicize it and to stop threatening its neighbors.
