Pizzonia move 'silly' - Coulthard

Pizzonia move 'silly' - Coulthard

13 September 2004


David Coulthard branded Antonio Pizzonia's failed overtaking move in the closing stages of the Monza race 'silly.' The pair clashed at the track's first chicane. Williams' 'sub' explained that the McLaren had more straight line speed but that Coulthard made a mistake in the Parabolica corner.

"It was a good opportunity," said the young Brazilian. "But we both locked our wheels and touched."

Coulthard said the clash was 'inevitable' as he suspected that the former Jaguar racing 'Jungle Boy' was going to try something. "Unless you slipstream past in a straight line," 33-year-old Coulthard told Autosport, "then you can't out-brake someone. When the impact came I was ready for it."
