In my foggy memory, jeff had to have extra pads placed on the rails at the sides of his helmet to keep him from getting knocked out by the g-forces in the F1 car, and he had trouble getting the braking points right, he was repeatingly hitting the brakes hundreds of yards too early.
Montoya on the other hand, was having a blast in the big, heavy, slow stock car, sliding it around like a toy.

I came away with the impression that it was easy to handle a stock car when compared to a F1 car.
Or maybe that was just how I wanted to remember it
Or, that The F1 stops soo much quicker that getting used to its braking distances takes some time.
