From the Historic Grand Prix collection, this is a Ferrari 312 originally driven in Formula One during the 1967 season by Belgian Jacky Ickx and New Zealand's Chris Amon.

This is a McLaren M19A/2-Ford which competed in Formula One back in 1971, driven by another New Zealander, Denis Hulme.

Graham Hill drove this Embassy Shadow DN1/3A-Ford in 1973.

This Marlboro McLaren M23/12-Ford driven in 1976 by Jochen Mass is identical to the one in which James Hunt won the World Championship that year.

This Marlboro Alfa Romeo 182/C5 was driven by Andrea De Cesaris in 1982.

Back to modern day Formula One machines, here is the Orange Arrows A21, powered by a Renault-based Supertec V10 engine.

The team has struggled since being bought by Tom Walkinshaw in 1996, but the package has continued to improve during the 2000 season, showing much promise.

The qualifying session begins and immediately DC is out on the track for a shake-down.

Nick Heidfeld takes the Prost-Peugeot out for an early spin. The best he could manage was 16th on the grid, but it was a thrill to see the F1 cars take on the oval section of the track.

Ralf Schumacher runs through the banked turn on his way to his tenth spot on the grid.

Pedro de la Rosa takes the #18 Arrows back into the pits after a fast lap.

Jarno Trulli also returns to the pits in the Buzzin' Hornets Jordan. He impressed us all with the best-of-the-rest spot (fifth) on the grid.

The Sauber of Pedro Diniz landed ninth.

A sight like no other. Michael Schumacher takes a Ferrari around Turn 13 before launching onto the front straight at the Brickyard. At this point he was fastest on the track at under 1 minute and 15 seconds, but he was still to go faster.

The Historic Grand Prix Collection takes to the track, led by a 1967 Brabham-Repco BT-24.

A 1970 Brabham BT-33/3 leads the #9 Tyrell 002 in which Jackie Stewart won the 1971 World Championship. It's amazing how quickly the design of the cars was changing at that time.

In 1973 former World Champion Graham Hill set up his own Embassy Racing team, with cars from a new constructor called Shadow.

The Ferrari 312-T2 that Niki Lauda drove in 1976, the year of his disastrous accident at the Nurburgring. Behind is a 1976 March 76 1/3.

Gilles Villeneuve drove this Ferrari 3 12-T5/046 in 1980.

Andrea de Cesaris' Marlboro Alfa Romeo 182/C5 from 1982, and a 1982 March 821/07 as driven by Jochen Maas and Raul Boesel.

The Williams FW08C/011 driven by Keke Rosberg and Jacques Lafitte in 1983, ahead of a Lotus 79/4 as driven by Mario Andretti in 1978.

John Watson's 1972 March 72 1/4, a BRM P20 1/01 as driven by Jean-Pierre Beltoise in 1974, something I can't recognize and then a 1975 Brabham BT44B as driven by Carlos Reutemann.
