Relive the 1998 Austrian Grand Prix with us, ahead of the 2016 edition of the race at the Red Bull Ring.

Much like the unusual conditions seen in qualifying for the 2016 Austrian Grand Prix, conditions would play a big part in the outcome of the 1998 edition of the race, one of the last before the race left the F1 calendar in 2004. Many are thankful that Red Bull purchased the track and reached a deal with Bernie Ecclestone to return the race to the schedule in 2014.

Qualifying for the 1998 show was very similar conditions to that seen in 2016. The conditions were wet, then eventually drying out by the end of the session, leading to Giancarlo Fisichella earning his first career Formula One pole. Jean Alesi from Sauber would join him on the front row, while perennial frontrunners Mika Hakkinen and Michael Schumacher would make up the second row.

On the start, Hakkinen would be the one away in the best form, while further down the grid Olivier Panis did not start due to a clutch failure. The first lap would be filled with carnage, collecting both the Orange Arrows cars and Hakkinen’s teammate David Coulthard.

While Hakkinen would cruise away to a comfortable victory in Austria, it was worth watching the fight that David Coulthard underwent to bounce back to second on the day in Spielberg. On the day he would be involved in two different incidents, be forced to pit to replace his front wing, and restart last on the grid under the safety car, any other driver would’ve been expected to finish outside the points, but Coulthard would buck that trend.

Michael Schumacher would come home third on the day for Ferrari, picking up one final spot when teammate Eddie Irvine pulled over for him, relegating the Brit to fourth. Jordan’s Ralf Schumacher and Williams Racing’s Jacques Villeneuve would round out the drivers in the points on the day. Only six cars would finish on the lead lap, and just twelve of twenty-two cars finished the event.
