Notes
- This was Marc Gené's last race to date. From the German Grand Prix to the Italian Grand Prix, he was replaced by Antônio Pizzonia.
- This was the first podium finish of the season for a McLaren driver.
- Jarno Trulli had a dramatic end to his race. He lost control of his Renault through the high-speed Bridge Corner, and hit the tyres on the inside retaining wall. The car then barrel-rolled through the gravel before coming to a rest just after Priory. Trulli was unhurt, although he did say he was "a little crazier, maybe".
- Both Minardi cars raced with sponsor-free liveries, showing only the dedication "John Boy" to team manager John Walton, who passed away days before the race.
