Guessing Game
F1 needs 1000bhp - but not at any cost, says @NobleF1: http://bit.ly/1z6qPFn #F1

I think that this picture is the beginning of the 1986 German GP and that that's Berger in the Benetton in the lead. That Ferrari doing weird things is Johansson?

'86, eh? So that would be Prost coming up Berger's behind?
Following that is, what, a Renault, driven by Piquet or Mansell?
I'm confused. In '86 was Renault not swapping spit with Lotus under the black and gold JPS covers?
Good photo though.“If everything's under control, you're going too slow.” Mario Andretti

I read where Christian Horner said they could probably get 1000 hp out of the current motors if they let them have a higher fuel flow rate and higher RMP.

No it is Rosberg coming up behing Berger. Mansell is in the Red 5 Williams (5th) and Piquet in the white 6 Williams. In 86 Lotus were in their final year with JPS, so the cars were still black. It was 87 when they were in Camel yellow. You can see Johnny Dumfries' Lotus outside of Alliots Ligier.
Senna is already out of shot and screaming towards the first corner in the other Lotus, so sorry Rollo since Berger isn't in the lead, I can't give you a cookie
Interesting to see the teams that never made it, the likes of Zakspeed (palmer and Rotthegatter) and F.O.R.C.E. (Beatrice) (Jones and Tambay)Last edited by anfield5; 29th January 2015 at 20:18.

I'd knew that this could only be '85 or '86 precisely because there were black Lotii and McLarens 1 & 2; it also must have been '86 because in '85 it was Lauda¹ in 1 and Prost in 2. I could also only think of two circuits where the pits were on the left hand side of the camera like that and since I think that the British GP was at Brands Hatch, it must have been Hockenheim.
And the reason I don't get a cookie:
Bureaucrat Anfield5², you are technically correct - the best kind of correct. Damn the things not seen in shot.
