Defected from F1 to CART, where he raced until 2001. He then announced his retirement from driving, perhaps influenced by the death of his son from cerebral palsy earlier in that year. However, after a deserved rest, he raced in selected events in the then new Megane series in Brazil, before permanently retiring. Now works as an exporter of nautical electrical parts and also runs a reforestation business in Brazil. Lives in Miami, Florida.
