Giancarlo Fisichella won the 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix for Jordan amid chaos and in treacherous conditions. The Force India driver does not rule out a similar show this season, provided there are similar extraordinary circumstances.
After the 2003 race was marred by numerous crashes, Fisichella was seen battling with McLaren’s Kimi Raikkonen in that eventful race. The Italian took the lead on lap 53 but soon the race was red-flagged. Though Raikkonen was initially declared winner for leading two laps prior to the red flag, FIA later noticed Fisichella had already begun his 56th lap before the race was suspended, and hence it was the Italian, and not Raikkonen who was leading two laps prior to the red flag. And at Imola, Fisichella was handed over the trophy. Similar situation prevailing, Fisichella felt a repeat show was not out of the bounds. “I won the race in Brazil under very special circumstances with a car that was always on the last row of the grid. To win this year again needs very special circumstances so it is a question of what the weather can bring to us.”
