David,

"ever" is a bit strong isn't it?  Or "I can't remember it, so
it must never have happened". 

I was a little out on my dates... It was back in 1993, Monza, 12th
September (or there abouts)... (I must see my doctor about these
problems remembering dates; but I keep on forgetting.:-)

Christian Fittipaldi clipped the back end of his Minardi team mate
Martini.

Another thing I didn't quite get get right...  He didn't even lose
a place.

Take a look at:
