Notes

• This race saw Mika Häkkinen's first win of the season.
• Last Fastest Lap: Mika Häkkinen
• As usual, this race was run without any tobacco sponsorship.
• This race saw the first DNQ of the season, by Tarso Marques's Minardi, as he couldn't make the 107% cut.
• This race saw Heinz-Harald Frentzen's last race for the Jordan team, he was sacked by that team after this race and forced to sit out for the next race, the 2001 German Grand Prix.
• At the start, Jarno Trulli's Jordan collided with David Coulthard's McLaren in the first corner. Eventually, both cars were retired within the first few laps.
• Jacques Villeneuve's BAR pushed his teammate Olivier Panis off the track at the start. Panis retired from the race immediately.
