Name that driver

[teabagyokel]

Parmalat Diniz?

 

[Muddytalker]

Spot, and indeed, on.

 

[teabagyokel]

Who be the cowboy?

 

[FB]

If he's not American then he has appalling fashion sense. Is it Brett Lunger?

 

[teabagyokel]

No, I'll have to give you a little bit Lunger!

[PAUSE FOR LAUGHTER]

[COAT]

 

[FB]

Okay TBY, I give in who is it?

 

[teabagyokel]

Arturo Merzario.

 

[FB]

Well you beat us all with that one TBY, do you want to try another?

 

[teabagyokel]

No, I don't lol!

 

[FB]

Okay I'll try one more and see if anyone bites. Who's this chubby faced chap?

 

[Muddytalker]

Didier Pironi?

 

[FB]

Well done Muddy, it is/was Didier Pironi. Sponsored by Haribo during his F1 career, which may explain the chubby cheeks (Mmmm, gummy bears) Also, The man who got a ban introduced on drivers loosening their seatbelts and removing their helmets during their slowing down laps. Something that was overlooked in 2008 when Lewis Hamilton undid his belts in Brazil to celebrate his championship win.

They couldn't have penalised him for anything more ridiculous than they already had that year to be fair! One point deduction is what I was expecting though!

 

[Muddytalker]

Said to be the last of the gentleman racers, or even the last real gentleman.

Edit - Picture changed as the first one didn't seem to appear in the post.

 

[cider_and_toast]

That's Elio isn't it?

Elio De Angelis.

 

[Muddytalker]

Yep, that's Elio.

 

[cider_and_toast]

Ha, knew it straight away.

You won't see many F1 drivers who can do this.

Another tragic loss to the sport.

Any way, I best get looking for the next picture then.

 

[cider_and_toast]

Ok, Who is this then?

 

[fat jez]

Cowboy from Top Gun?

 

[cider_and_toast]

Ok then, a quick clue.

He had a future world champion as a team mate and also in the same season another driver who caused some interest.
