Well, it looked strange, didn't it! It was because da Matta in 13th had to start from the back (20th) after having caused a halt to the first start, Frentzen in 15th stalled and went into the pits trying (unsuccessfully) to take the spare car, while Webber who should have been in 17th and Alonso who should have been in 19th both started from the pitlane. So that's why the left hand side of the grid was empty after P11!

It was certainly the most odd grid formation i have ever seen.

Monaco 2000 had also quite a interesting grid on the restart.
Missing from the grid was Wurz (12th), Button (14th), de la Rosa (16th), Heidfeld (18th) and Gene (21st). de la Rosa failed to take restart, but others started from pit lane. Zonta (20th) had quite a interesting place. |
