Nice question there Mintex. I'm going to ask one in relation to the BTCC - it's not too difficult:

Which teabag company sponsored a car during the 1980s? What year? Whose car? What car was it?

Correctimundo - I've had my signature showing the current quote for the last 2 weeks!! I forget who said it, might have been Henry Liddon.
Nowhere did I say driver, as a former 'nav' myself I am strongly of the opinion that the efforts of the 'sack of spuds' are equally important for the prospects of success.
So over to you 52Paddy.

Ah, you got us with that one! Very good question

I've held off as I had rather monopolised this thread pre-Christmas.

Correct Mintex

Which drivers performed music on-stage after the 1995 British GP and with what instruments?

[D28]

I recall Damon Hill (guitar) and Eddie Jordan (drums) playing after the race; does Eddie count as a driver?

You're correct with Damon Hill but not with Eddie Jordan. I'm looking for two other drivers, though one report I've read mentions a third. Clue: one of the drivers was singing.

Johnny Herbert singing "Johnny Be Good", David Coultard playing maraccas or something simple like that?

Yes and Yes. For the record, I read a report that said Mika Hakkinen was playing a tambourine. Don't know if it is a confusion of the facts though.
