	Zsolt Baumgartner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zsolt Baumgartner (born January 1, 1981, Debrecen, Hungary) is a Formula One racing driver formerly in the employ of the Minardi team.
		Zsolt made his race debut at the 2003 Hungarian Grand Prix, substituting for the injured Ralph Firman in the Jordan team; he also took part in the Italian Grand Prix that year.
		Zsolt failed to distinguish himself in the 2004 Formula One season; however, after two near-misses (9th in Monaco and 10th in Canada) he managed to take Minardi's first point in over 2 years by finishing 8th (albeit second last) in the US Grand Prix.

		HUNGARIAN Formula 1 star, Zsolt Baumgartner, along with the Minardi-Cosworth team, brought something a bit different to Budapest on Sunday, February 15.

		Baumgartner's first race is at the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix on March 8.

		While trying to avoid [Takuma] Sato's spinning BAR at Raidillon, his car was hit from behind by Baumgartner, and the ensuing contact with the barriers eliminated him from any further competition.
		Baumgartner survived the incident, but was forced to stop at the pits at the end of the opening lap to have the damaged nose of his car replaced.
		To be involved in someone else's accident on the first lap, which eliminated Gimmi, and then for Zsolt to be the victim of what looks like a tyre blow-out on Jenson's car and taken out of the race, it's just really a sad way to finish the day.

		Baumgartner is the latest in a long line of drivers who have made it to F1 only because his team needs money and he has access to a lot of it.
		Baumgartner helped Eddie Jordan out of a financial hole last year when Ralph Firman was sidelined for two races, and he is doing the same for Minardi in 2004.

		After being taken out the Belgian Grand Prix when Jenson Button's rear tyre exploded and pitched the BAR into him on the run to Les Combes at Spa, the Hungarian was again an innocent victim as Jordan rival Giorgio Pantano speared him at Monza's first chicane.
		The incident had repercussions for Baumgartner too, as the Hungarian was forced to switch to the T-car, which was fitted with a fresh engine, the penalty for which was the addition of ten places on his eventual grid position.

		Finally, it is slightly awkward given that the team has yet to announce whether it will re-sign Zsolt Baumgartner for another year.
		Neither Nissany nor Baumgartner is considered to possess much talent, meaning that that unlike Michael Schumacher and most other drivers in F1 from richer countries in Western Europe and beyond, Hungary's daredevils have to pay for the right to risk breaking their necks.
		Baumgartner, whom we briefly met last year at a local go-karting event, seems like a nice guy, and we hope he finds the money required to enjoy another year or two driving around the world in circles.
