2nd GP ever!
Harry Schell drove a rear-engined Cooper-JAP at the 1950 Monaco GP. Unless there was one at Britain a week before hand...?

Let's re-write history:
Michael Schumacher debuted at the Belgian GP at Spa in 1991. If Michael wasn't driving, who then was Eddie Jordan's alternate choice?
and for bonus points: Name the terrorist whose name was on the side of that Jordan? :D
I don't know the driver but Jordan had "Osama" on the cars up until '94 or '95.Quote:

Go on.
i thought it was the williams of the mid 80's that had osama written on the side? due to their saudi sponsors? or am i madly off course here?
I think you are generally on course. The Williams had sponsorship from the Bin Laden construction company and had Bin laden on the side. Osama Bin Laden is a member of the family that owns the firm.Quote:

Anyway...how about another question :cool:
The 2007 season will see Ferrari racing with their youngest driver pairing since when, and who were their two main drivers that year?
1974, Lauda & RegazzoniQuote:
