On his way to the Belgian Grand Prix Jos Verstappen made an unusual detour in order to fill up his Stewart-Ford SF2 at a Brussels fuel station. It was a 'meet the press' event, organised by the team's fuel lubricant and technology partner Texaco. "It's a bit different than a Formula 1 pit stop. An F1 pit stop only takes seven seconds and in that time you get a full tank of fuel and a new set of tyres. Here I have to do everything myself," Jos joked.
