Grand Prix Rejects

Johnny Herbert's one-off for Ligier in 1994 always strikes me off. In a season with a heavy driver rotation both due to tragic and budgetary reasons, that always seemed very random.

Vandervell Products Ltd. will enter with the same driver and equipment as the last race.

However, we're not allowed to make it available publicly. Are we still not even allowed to discuss what happened? Why we went from F1 Rejects to GP Rejects? Is it still a faux pas to mention F1 Rejects? I'm not at liberty to mention the exact reason why Jenoch had to hand over control of the site t...

We were unable to reach Günter Schmid or WIlli Kauhs...

Albert Scherrer Who? I really have never knowingly heard of this guy. Swiss driver, drove an HWM in his home GP in 1953, finished 9th. That's all Wikipedia has to say about him.

I'm in my 6th consecutive "gap year" after high school... OK, I also studied for a vocational qualification in IT, and managed to complete everything else except the final work placement. I simply couldn't find a place where to do it. Well it's been 8 years more... still haven't done any ...

Extra Leg 1: North Cape, Finnmark, Norway -> Honningsvåg, Finnmark, Norway https://i.imgur.com/D375720.jpg 36,7 km in 44 min without traffic Got the radio from the only electronics store nearby, and then headed to the hotel to have a more comfortable place to wait for the rest of the competitors.

Whilst making Schlesser's mini-profile for the test driver article, I couldn't find any reliable sources for this, the only one being a single post on the Autosport forums (which very well might be quoting the old F1 Rejects profile).

First off, thank you for liking the article! To avoid having to make an extremely long article (or a multi-parter), I wanted to focus on drivers who either tested for a long time or for multiple teams while having few to no race entries. But I admit that I completely forgot about Franck Montagny whi...
