Overview[]
The S3 - Italian Grand Prix was the fourteenth race of Masters Season 3.
Report[]
With both championships tightly condensed, Season 3 had the potential for a dramatic grandstand finish. However, none of the championship contenders were able to steal a convincing march at Spa as Damon Hill took his second win of the season ahead of Fernando Alonso and Gerhard Berger. With Alain Prost and Michael Schumacher failing to finish, the top three had closed to just seven points.
