As Michael Schumacher won the European Grand Prix easily (the standard for 2004), Takuma Sato was providing all the excitement. He’d qualified second on the grid and, despite a bad start, fought back throughout the race to be in contention for a podium. He was running third but, in true Sato style, went for a massive lunge on Rubens Barrichello into the first corner. He got past but damaged his front wing in the process and had to pit for repairs. A couple of laps later, his engine blew. His BAR teammate Jenson Button ended up third.
