It was the thirteenth race of the 1995 Formula One season. The 71-lap race was the first Formula One win for David Coulthard of the Williams team after starting from pole position Coulthard became the first Scottish driver to win a Grand Prix since Jackie Stewart won the 1973 German Grand Prix 22 years previously. Michael Schumacher was second in a Benetton, with Damon Hill third in the latter Williams car. After several controversial incidents previously involving Schumacher and Hill in the 1995 season, including collisions at Silverstone, Spa and Monza (the latter two of which saw confrontations between the two drivers respectively on the podium and at track-side), Schumacher and Hill shook hands with each other at the podium presentation following this race. Report Background To optimise their chances of winning at the Autódromo do Estoril, Williams brought an upgraded chassis to the race, a "B" specification of their FW17 car. The upgraded chassis would be used throughout the remainder of the season. 1995 Grands Prix: Grand Prix of Europe Henry Alan Alan Henry Autocourse 1995–96 https://archive.org/details/autocourseworlds0000unse/ Hazleton Publishing 1-874557-36-5 201 1995 registration Practice and qualifying Two practice sessions were held before the race; the first was held on Friday morning and the second on Saturday morning.
