Grand Prix World 1998: The Tyrell Challenge Part 45

 A streak ends: The 2002 Austrian and German GPs Welcome back to The Tyrell Challenge where we still own everything. Not totally dominantly so, as Ferrari has fought seriously against us, but still have won every single race. Simply, we have the best car/driver package in all of F1.

Ferrari upgrade for Britain while we upgrade for France. Everything working perfectly fine over here. Well ... everything but the Pole column. We are not ... that good over there. Again, our driver/car packages are better on race day. The FIA certainly like us. Money, at this point, is not a factor anymore, but we'll appreciate any and all income. The track I'll keep calling the French "Barcelona", Magny Cours. Tires/Engines tend to overheat, but ou...
