Rolled by a low-speed elk

Article Abstract:

The Mercedes-Benz A-class, or "baby Benz," failed a basic safety test that would help avoid car collisions with elks in Sweden. Journalists spread the news about the car's failure and Mercedes-Benz was forced to suspend European deliveries until modifications were made. Plans to sell the car in North America were abandoned because of the incident.

Honda shows speed in qualifying but has difficulty on wet Malaysian track

Article Abstract:

An account is presented of the 2001 Malaysian Grand Prix. Winner Michael Schumacher became the first man since Ascari in the 1950's to win more than five consecutive races. An important factor in Ferrari's domination of the race was their decision to use intermediate-wet tyres, which allowed higher speeds on a drying track.
