Even though I qualified on pole I started the race in 10th position. I later found out that this was probably due to an over zealous attitude to cutting corners!

My first race in formula one was one of gaining experience of the cars in race conditions. From the start I lost a couple of positions but by the end I'd made them back up and finished a credible 10th.

My first World Championship point was in the bag!
