Good to see that everyone is active. Just out of curiousity, what is the record of inactive drivers ever seen?
Probably something like 4 or 5, I seem to remember there being a good few missing near the end of season 5.
Races: 163 - Wins: 23 - Pole Positions: 24 - Fastest Laps: 22
Season 9: Constructors' Champions

Race Day - Part One
Welcome to Montreal race fans. After another long delay due to those pesky rodents, we are now ready to get this show on the road.
Matteo Scala lines up on pole for Minardi.
Monil Santilal brings up rear in his MAC.
And they are off!
Scala takes an early lead followed by AMR pair Greenhalgh and Maverick. Edwards dives to the inside of Maverick.
As they leave the first few corners, Edwards can be seen in 3rd.
1 Scala, 2 Grenhalgh, 3 Edwards, 4 Maverick, 5 Jalving, 6 Kederer, 7 Pedersen.
Gilson locks up into the chicane.
The field is getting strung out already.
Maverick defends his 4th from Jalving.
The first three seem to be pulling away from Maverick.
Naturally, Scala takes the fastest lap.
Van Renselaar passes Pedersen for 7th.
Standings as we begin the second lap.
Gilson locks up and tags Legge from behind.
With a little grass cutting, both make the harpin.
Scala takes fastest lap again.
Steer seems to be becoming a mobile road block.
Edwards is beginning to put pressure on Greenhalgh.
In fact Greenhalgh feels the need to defend his position from the TNR man.
Yet another fastest lap for Scala.
Edwards definitely getting racy.
2nd and 3rd very close now.
Maverick meanwhile seems to have pulled a little gap to Jalving.
Edawrds is really piling on the pressure now. Will Greenhalgh tighter line into the chicane delay him on the pit straight?
Edwards takes 2nd place!
Maverick and Jalving are much closer too.
Can Greenhalgh hang on to Edwards shirt tails?
Steer seems to have got over his slow start and passes Legge for 10th.

Greenhalgh losing touch with Edwards.
Edwards now nearly 4 seconds down on leader Scala.
Elleker can't be happy with 20th place surely?
Its looking close further down the field.
Legge has slipped back even further, losing places to Horváth and Greidanus. Here he desparately defends from Rodríguez.
As we enter the first ad break, Scala seems to be in a class of his own.
Stay tuned for part two.
