Thanks. As I can't post pictures, anybody else please feel free to post one
Well since I concurred with D-Type on the last pic, here's one from a particularly dusty book on my shelves!
Ferrari 125 GP49
Alas, no, Rich23.
An A-Type? ;)
That's an A-type Connaught. No idea who or where, though. (Driver could be CAS Brooks, but I'm not convinced)
I find myself on the horn of a dilemma! I failed to be specific in terms of what, where, when and whom.
Of course, it is a Connaught A-Type.
Happy to hand the baton to you, sir, unless anyone, now armed with that information, cares to fill in the gaps.
By way of a clue, may I say that the picture was taken in 1953, the ancien pilote at the helm is still very much with us and he recently enjoyed a rather long and pleasant lunch by all accounts!
By the way, Brooks it ain't.
Roy Salvadori?
Oulton Park?
Salva yes! Location no!
It was sur le continent!
So now we have Connaught A-Type, Salvadori, 1953, not in Blighty. I'm 'appy with that.
May I suggest that Vitesse and D-Type can fight over the baton... first in best dressed.
Oh and I'll put up the race and results now if anyone cares to enquire.
Well, that means Zandvoort, Reims, Nurburgring or Monza
I haven't a clue as to which.
Over to you Vitesse!
The picture was taken at the Modena Grand Prix on 20 September 1953. The picture was respectfully borrowed (!) from a Cyril Posthumous book I have called (I'm not at home right now so this may be incorrect) The British Racing Car.
Ah, can't seem to see an EDIT button anywhere so apologies. The book's proper name is The British Competition Car and it was first published in 1959.
could we have a more modern car this time?
It's now 12 days since D-Type invited someone to post a picture. Perhaps he or she's bereft of time or interest or scanner or ideas... Qui sait?Quote:

there we go?
Rolf Stommelen in the Hill GH1 at Monza in 1975.
Car and Date right
Driver and Track are wrong
I'm thinking Tony Brise, but not sure where :dozey:
Nope
Francois Migault at Zolder?
Vern Schuppan, Anderstorp, practice, not the race! (His race number was 22.)Quote:

Alas, no, no and no.
Nicola Larini
Osella FA1
1988
Well done! Yes, yes and yes.
Your shot.
here we go
Team/Car: Scuderia-Italia, Dallara Judd
Driver: Emanuele Pirro 1991
Track: Hungaroring, Hungary
Has someone been 'googling' for 3 weeks? :confused:
From the look of the Ligier and (AGS?) in the background I think it's from 1990, Not sure on the circuit...Paul Ricard? It's definitely not Phoenix or Interlagos though so I'm fairly positive it's Emmanuele Pirro in the car (Gianni Morbidelli drove it in the first two races of the season).
How to buy UGG sheepskin boots?Everyone who wear the UGG sheepskin boots will get many benefits. UGG boots are made to be worn barefoot as they will form to your feet and provide natural arch support. When buying a pair of sheepskin boots or ugg boots (premier brand in luxury and comfort footwear), there are many things to look for:First of all, you must make sure your sheepskin boots are actually made out of 100% authentic sheep skin. Some manufacturers use cheap substitutes such as gluing synthetic wool on to cow hide. These imitation sheepskin boots come at a cheaper price tag, but unfortunately the less expensive alternatives may cause skin irritations, encourage bacteria growth, wear down, tear quickly and noticeably less comfortable. http://www.shoppingugg.com When buying sheepskin boots, make sure they are manufactured from quality Australian Merino wool. Australian Merino sheepskin boots are considered the best material for making sheepskin boots and it also ensures that you will be able to use them for many years. Authentic wool also allows your feet to breathe and help reduce feet sweating. Merino sheep skin is by and large thicker and much more durable than other kinds of sheep skin, which helps your boots keep their shape as well as resist wear and tear. By purchasing sheepskin boots made from merino wool and sheep skin, you will be guaranteed that not only will they be the most comfortable pair of sheepskin boots you'll ever own, but they will also last for a long time to come.

Seeing as no one has done this for a while, I thought I would revive it.
Good luck.
^^Hint: Isn't a race, but at a test session.
A Dome F105?
Correct! Now can anyone name the driver?
As far as I remember, it was an F3000 driver of the time, or a relatively inexperienced F1 driver from 1996 who tested the dome. My guess, Riccardo Rosset?
