Helmut Marko?

Yep, before his eye was injured he was a damn fast driver. With two laps remaining he was two and a half minutes down from the Ferrari, and he almost made it up!

[Johnny Carwash]

Any part right? And schumi Malaysia 2000?

Wrong again Jos. Won't give a clue just yet.

 

[Jos the Boss]

Well it can't be 2000 then, I'm sure they pulled out round about that time, so 1999 but I have no idea which races where near the end apart from the one the Ferrari's got DSQed for, so Malaysia 1999 I think i was there and I think schumi let irvine through!

 

[tooncheese]

1998? Oz?

Goodyears last season was in 1998 and Ferrari had them so it would've been at Monza I think with Schumacher

Correct. It was indeed the 1998 Italian Grand Prix which was won by Michael Schumacher.

Time to ask that purler of a question I had in mind:

The 1990 Japanese Grand Prix featured an unusual event that hasn't been seen since (till the 2011 Brazilian Grand Prix), what was it?

 

[canis]

I think I know the answer to this one, wasn't it the last race where there was no driver from Europe on the podium?

 

[LifeW12]

Yes that is correct, I thought it was going to be much harder.

Piquet, Moreno and Aguri Suzuki

There's not much chance of it these days, all of the top teams mostly have two European drivers

 

[canis]

OK, next question, should be an easy one...

Red Bull once did a promotion where DC drove their F1 car over the Bosphorus Bridge from Europe to Asia and then back again. What did Red Bull Forget to do for this promotion?
