Post by: Andy Zarse on October 02, 2003, 02:35:09 pm: Al Holbert or Hans Stuck? He looks a bit fat, so probably the American. Or the German? Could be either and I reckon it is 1986.

Post by: Gilles on October 02, 2003, 10:33:48 pm: Not the good driver, not the good year (maybe it was Avon ones anyway...) :-\
Title: Re:Easy Driver
Post by: Nordic on October 03, 2003, 09:59:43 am: I think it is 83, and the driver the late S Bellof.
Title: Re:Easy Driver
Post by: Gilles on October 03, 2003, 10:16:49 am: Not too bad but still wrong...

I never thought it gonna be so hard to guess !
Title: Re:Easy Driver
Post by: Nordic on October 03, 2003, 12:51:10 pm: He looks a bit lanky, so the maybe is it Vern Schuppan as for the year, maybe 86.
Title: Re:Easy Driver
Post by: hgb on October 03, 2003, 12:58:54 pm: It's not Stuck, that's for sure. Stuck is much taler and thinner. Could it be Jochen Mass ? That's a tough one. :-\

Post by: Nordic on October 03, 2003, 01:16:53 pm: Just seen its not 86, so is it maybe 83 then? still say schuppan.
Title: Re:Easy Driver
Post by: Gilles on October 03, 2003, 01:27:43 pm: Yes it's 1983. :D

It you have a good resolution you can read the autograph in the right side (but wrtitten in blue so quite unreadable)

Post by: Kpy on October 03, 2003, 04:37:43 pm: If he's fat then he should be Michael Andretti.

Post by: Fax on October 03, 2003, 08:29:35 pm: Oh Sh*t!
Didn't see Gilles admit that it was '83. That would exclude the 961. My guess now would be Hurley Haywood.

Post by: Fax on October 04, 2003, 05:22:25 am: Actually guys in recent years Mike has been in quite good condition. His second wife is a physical trainer and has him very fit. He's in much better shape than when he ever was at the height of his powers as a Champ Car driver. He was quite chubby back when married to his first wife Sandy. Jesus, she was a piece of work! His current Mrs. is the complete opposite of Sandy Bimbo, very quiet and reserved. Had he been married to this one back in '93, he just might have cut it in F1. The talent has always been there, just not the distractions.

Post by: Nordic on October 06, 2003, 09:56:13 am: If its 83, most have already been guessed. Is it the most famous of all Mr Ickx?

someone find the driver with a wrong year, someone else the year without the driver...
... who can give me the complete answer?

Probably it's too evident for you...
