19. David – I think 8 drivers won in 2003.

Michael Schumacher, Ralf Schumacher, Montoya, Coulthard, Alonso (first victory), Raikkonen (first victory), Fisichella, Barrichello – pretty sure that’s it. Don’t know if there’ve been more than that in a season before, though.

Keith,
I know that my comment is out of place but i can’t find a place to do it, so it goes.
I’ve seen somewhere that Renault is really up to put Di Grassi on in its cockpit in the 2009 season and has offered Piquet Jnr. to Toro Rosso along with a financial compensation.
Have you heard anything like this?

Really becasue with a circuit like that it would have been a shame to only use it for the F1, and I know that normally theres a good mixture, though as I say ITV didn’t even mention it, not even to say ‘the Porsches had lots of fun this afternoon’ as they normally do.
I bet they weren’t allowed to mention the ‘normal’ racing for contractual reasons…..
I think I might have get out there next year!

Hey DG, yup, there were support races there, all but 1 held in the daytime (specifically, afternoon). I didn’t get around to watching them, though: there was shopping to be done! They were:

Aston Martin Asia Cup
Formula BMW Pacific
Porsche Carrera Cup Asia

Why’d you ask?

I would like to know from anybody who was there, were there any other support races over the weekend? Either during the day or night? The TV coverage didn’t mention anything, but I’m surprised if the local race series weren’t there.
