If my numbers are correct, Alain Prost has 76, not 73 and Ferrari has 80, not 77. Either way, the overall standings are correct. I must admit, timely information on the South African GP was difficult to come by. I was listening to the BBC (shortwave) and they had a 2.5 hour sports broadcast coming up (this was on 10/19) in which they promised something about the GP. Unfortunately when they went to a different frequency I lost them. Evidently ESPN will broadcast the Australian GP sometime on 11/3, but not live since it would end up being show sometime around 1 or 2 am EST.

Either way, the overall standings are correct. Prost has indeed scored 76 points, but only best n races count so he has only 73 in the standings. I believe n is 11 or 12, but I may br wrong. I think Ferrari *is* supposed to have 77 points (53 by Alboreto and 24 by Johansson). Or am I wrong? \tom haapanen watmath!watdcsu!haapanen Don't cry, don't do anything No lies, back in the government No tears, party time is here again President Gas is up for president (c) Psychedelic Furs, 1982
