So...is it a Ferrari?

It's definately a Ferrari.

The picture is saved on the other computer in this house.

Indeed it is.

So far, the driver is still wrong, you probably won't get it, so I'll tell you.

It was the solitary F1 test for Scott Dixon.

So far we have:

A Ferrari
Spa

Judging from the picture on the wall above my PC I'd say the little air intake before the rear wheels would make the car the 156 F1 "Sharknose". Ferrari ran that from 1961 to 1963.

There's no number on the car which is curious as the cars from the '60's ran with numbers on the flanks and nose. The colour has got me stuffed too, as the Belgian team I was thinking of ran Ferrari sports cars and not F1. The only time Ferrari has run in anything other than Rosso is 1964 when they ran in white and blue after Enzo had a disagreement with the Italian auto authorities. So unless the picture just makes the car look yellow/orange it's not a works car. :confused:

Ignoring the colour I'm going to say:

Wolfgang von Trips
Ferrari 156F1
Spa
1961

ARGGGGHHH!!!! This is impossible!

Agreed its a sharknose, so 1961, spa. Driver?? Phil Hill. Although I dunno why its yellow.

ok, got it - but I've got so frustrated I've had to cheat!!! But i'm not telling ;)

It is definitely a yellow Ferrari. You're right besides from the driver.

Hint, the driver was in the Ferrari sportscar works team. Use the place of the grand prix as a hint.
