The story
Michael Schumacher won the United States Grand Prix on 24 September 2000 for Ferrari. He completed 73 laps in 1:36:30.883, with Rubens Barrichello second and Heinz-Harald Frentzen third in the official final classification.
How it unfolded
Rubens Barrichello, driving for Ferrari, was classified +12.118s behind the winner. Heinz-Harald Frentzen took the remaining podium position for Jordan Mugen Honda, with a recorded gap of +17.368s. The race awarded 10, 6 and 4 championship points to the first three drivers.
The wider picture
The other points-scoring places went to Jacques Villeneuve (4th, 3 points), David Coulthard (5th, 2 points), Ricardo Zonta (6th, 1 points). These are the published race classifications, rather than qualifying positions: the result table also distinguishes lapped finishers from drivers who did not finish. The round took place at Indianapolis, USA.
