I’ve just finished the first chapter in my Schumacher-versus-Senna what-if: the Brazilian Grand Prix. It is, of course, only a first draft, and I’ll probably go through the entire text a couple of times in the next weeks, but still.

If you’re curious to read the chapter, you’ll have to be patient just a tad more. I’ll publish it together with the other 4 chapters of Part I — 3 of which I still have to write. In the mean time, you might want to read the prologue, if you haven’t already.

Should dozens of you readers not be able to wait a few weeks for the remaining races in part I, let me know. I might consider posting the first 2 chapters I’ve written up to now.

I expect to round off the first chapter on a race of my alternate version of the 1994 Formula One season, the Brazilian Grand Prix chapter, Ayrton Senna’s home race, tonight tomorrow night next weekend.

General information on the GP, some historical information and stats, and the practice and qualifying parts are all done. I started on the race bit last week and came about half-way. So, when I finish this chapter, there’s only 4 more chapters to go on Part I of The Encounter Down Under until there’s something more for you to read. I’ll keep you posted.
