Alright when was that again.....?

[Andreas Hultgren]

Now here's a very hot picture:

 

[Omer Said]

Was he Nicky Lauda ? 76 Nurburgring

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

No, this is a few years earlier.

(I might add that no one got seriously injured in this crash).

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

jarama 1970 jean piere beltoise matra, guy in flames is jackie ickx in ferrari, guy following beltoise i guess is graham hill, but not quite sure.

and this is what my source says about the crash: At the start of the race Jack Oliver's BRM collided with Ickx's Ferrari and both cars caught fire but both drivers escaped with relatively minor injuries, Ickx suffering a few burns. The cars however were both destroyed and continued to burn for some time. BRM immediately called in Rodriguez to check the suspension as Oliver reported an axle failure. The car was withdrawn.

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

You are right (not sure about Beltoise but the rest is correct). Your turn

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

well, Helmet looks like Beltoise to me

Here's another guy with a well-known helmet design, from the year of the crazy airboxes:

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

Well, I am going to be wrong on the track again but I am 99% sure it is in 1976 and it is Carlos Pace in his Brabham-Alfa... track is... Kyalami?

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

everything ok but the track. further north and a place that looks surreal today.

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

Ah, is it Österreichring ('76)?

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

nope, think of one of the major elements in the United States flag ...

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

What?! Lol... I will go with Watkins Glen then but not sure what you meant with that clue.

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

well, what track today sports many stripes (as in Stars and Stripes), decidedly not Watkins Glen

 

[Paul Metcalfe]

There's a clue in my name Andreas.

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

Paul Ricard?

 

[Brad Johnson]

Ah ya, that would make sense, if you just said Stripes i would of got it, the stars bit is what threw me off.

 

[Neil Gault]

Name the Car, Driver & Track

With the new seasons F1 about to start here is yet another little game to get you in the mood, lets see how good some of you are.

Guess the make of car, name the driver and the track.

 

[Resi Respati]

Senna, Toleman, Monaco, 1984

[Eckhart von Glan]

thx somebody for merging the tracks, officially we now have two guys able to post the next photo, I'd say first come first serve!

 

[Andreas Hultgren]

... and that guy is me Try this one:

 

[Eckhart von Glan]

looks like Monaco, rainy day, tires point me to the beginning of the 70s, will do some more research. 1972 was a rainy race, so my guess is Mike Hailwood, Monaco 1972
