Heinz-Harald Frentzen seemed to have made a close escape when he lost the refueling valve on lap 29 of the Hungarian GP. Teammanager Patrick Head ordered Frentzen to come in for refuelling which could have caused an explosion of the car. An attentive track marshall saw that Frentzen had lost a valve and called the officials who then called off the refuelling. Frentzen said about the track marshall: "It is a good feeling to know that there are people working in the background, who make the right decisions right away".
