Brazilian Tarso Marques will replace Taki Inoue at Minardi in the next two Grands Prix. Inoue, replaced in the first Grand Prix by Fisichella, is still having sponsorship problems. Marques has Formula 3000 experience and he has tested for the team.


Walkinshaw

Tom Walkinshaw, now technical director for Ligier, has said to be interested in the Arrows-Hart team. Walkinshaw had already stated he wanted to start his own team because he is having problems with the owner of Ligier Flavio Briatore, also the owner of Benetton. Walkinshaw wants to work with Dutch driver Jos Verstappen again, so making the Arrows team a good alternative to his original plan.


  • Eddie Irvine has shaken down all three Ferrari's for the next Grand Prix at Fiorano (Italy) yesterday. He drove five laps with his own car, eight with the T-car and seven with Schumacher's.
