	How the Sport can Regain its Winning Formula
		The 1999 Spanish Grand Prix was one of the most uncompetitive and uninteresting motor races of the modern era.
		Sepang, the venue of the 1999 Malysian Grand Prix, is a good example of this, but remains the exception rather than the rule.
		While a return to configurations with endles overtaking opportunities such as at Clermont-Ferrand, last used as the venue for the 1972 French Grand Prix, would be almost unthinkable, the FIA and circuit-designers would do well to think about improving circuit-layouts and to work towards a situation where overtaking might once again become fashionable.

	Chris Amon - Grand Prix Racing - the whole story
		After switching to the French Matra team at the end of 1970 he would dominate the 1972 French Grand Prix at Clermont- Ferrand, leaving his rivals for dead as he stormed away from the field.
		When Matra withdrew from F1 at the end of 1972 there was another catastrophic career wrong-slot: he signed for the Italian Tecno team, but Chris then embarked on a hopelessly underfinanced project to build his own Cosworth- powered F1 challenger.
		His last attempt to qualify for a Grand Prix came at Mosport Park in 1976, when his uncompetitive Wolf-Williams spun and was T-boned by another car.

		In the French Grand Prix he led from the start and was on the way to score Matra´s All-French maiden Grand Prix victory, when a flat front tyre on the Circuit Charade forced him to come into the pits.
		In spite of Chris Amon never giving up, Matra was not able to win a Grand Prix with a complete car of their own and that had nothing to do with the fact, that the New Zealander was the synonym for bad luck.
		As a chassis constructor Matra won nine Grand Prix all with Ford power and Jackie Stewart, as an engine manufacturer they scored three wins all in a Ligier chassis and with Jacques Laffite in the cockpit, but none with car plus engine made completely by their own.
