A signed 2002 FIA Austrian GP marshall's tabard, bearing the marker pen signatures of the winner Michael Schumacher, together with Rubens Barrichello, Juan Pablo Montoya, Giancarlo Fisichella and David Coulthard, the tabard colour-coded in fluorescent green with blue arrow, marked PITLANE COURSE, with the FIA Formula 1 World Championship insignia, framed and glazed, 84 by 61cm., 33 by 24in. The crowd booed Schumacher as he stood on top of the podium after this race. Rubens had been told to move aside for his teammate on the very last lap, having been fastest in practice and then led throughout. Such team orders were immediately banned by the FIA, though Michael would 'gift' the US Grand Prix to Rubens later on in the year.
