Quiz 10 the last one going up tomorrow

I thought I did better!!

2 questions I am protesting:

2.The cancellation of which GP left the 1998 season with a 5-week break until the final race?


You say it is China however it was the Portuguese Grand Prix that was cancelled that provided a chance for the Chinese Grand Prix to be held. I would have thought both answers were correct (Reference)

7.In which year was the new 5-red-lights starting sequence introduced?
You say it is 1995 but according to the Formula 1 Racing FAQ it was in 1996 (Reference)

Please clarify

I agree with JAY VEE on the cancelled GP
I am starting to feel like a Ferrari Driver, just when you think you might have all the answers someone proves you wrong

Thanks for the Quiz
