He had qualified his Williams-mechachrome FW20 an impressive third on the grid behind the Mclarens of polesitter Mika Hakkinen and David Coulthard, and was chasing the pair down in the closing laps after start-to-finish race leader Hakkinen was forced to curtail his pace. This was the first of just two podium finishes for the Quebecois during his title defence – he was also third next time out in Hungary – and he ended the season fifth in the points.
