| Monaco, 14 August, 2000 |
| The |
"Grand |
Prix |
at |
Mosport" |
was |
over |
and |
who |
| thought |
I |
would |
be |
back |
on |
my |
way |
to |
meet |
my |
| family |
was |
not |
right. |
After |
3 |
weeks |
in |
North |
| America, |
testing |
and |
racing |
was |
on |
the |
schedule, |
| some |
of |
us |
took |
also |
the |
opportunity |
to |
see |
the |
| great |
country, |
now |
one |
PR |
day |
in |
Detroit |
and |
we |
were on our way home. |
| Every |
day |
for |
a |
couple |
of |
hours |
exercising |
in |
the |
| gym |
and |
jogging |
to |
keep |
me |
fit |
for |
the |
races, |
most |
| of |
the |
remaining |
time |
I |
spent |
with |
the |
boys |
biking |
and with all kind of sports activities. |
| On Sunday |
I will |
be on |
my way |
to Texas |
where |
first |
| tests |
take |
place |
Thursday |
August |
31 |
at |
the |
Texas |
Motor Speedway. |
Nearest airport |
| There |
are |
a |
variety |
of |
routes |
