Year1997Memorable racesThe confrontation at Dry Sac
The 1997 championship turned on Villeneuve’s attack on Schumacher at Dry Sac. Contact ended the Ferrari’s race; Villeneuve continued and secured the title. The precise location matters alongside the result. Identifying the corner places the decisive confrontation within a real lap rather than leaving it as an isolated image of two cars side by side.
