Brundle has also competed in both & Derek Bell, & did Marc Surer or was it just the Paris Dakar?
Edit: Surer did compete in other rallies.

Depends on how you see it... people who actually drove a car under the WRC regulations, or someone who competed in World Rally Championship after 1973,- when it was started. I think the latter.

How about Minardi legend and certified F1 reject - Stéphane Sarrazin? Also, I thought somone might have mentioned Robert Kubica.

Here's a somewhat interesting question:
In 2005, how many points did Kimi Raikkonen take away from Alonso between Spain and Hungary?

Yeah, I cheated and looked it up now - it's one (!) point
Another question: how did Felipe Massa try to distract his friend Rubens Barrichello during a game of poker last year and did it work?

Did he throw the poker at Rubens head in an attempt to even up the fractured skull count?
Re: trivia question....

My guess would be Massa saying that Button was faster than Barrichello, but Barrichello didn't even noticed it since he was busy being bullied by Schumacher 
!
Seriously though, I don't have a clue...

He placed his smashed helmet from his Hungarian head injury incident into Barrichello's sightline. It worked, considering it was a part from Barri's car that caused it and he is a sentimental fellow.

During his last year at Ferrari, before his switch to Jaguar, Eddie Irvine jokingly said that the first thing he would do at Jag was what?
Re: trivia question....

That he would knock Schumacher out of the race?

And we have a winner. Just goes to show just how much of a hand grenade the MP4-20 was.
Here's another fairly easy question:
David Coulthard and Kimi Raikkonen are tied for 6th place for what record?

Since this was answered correctly I will allow myself to ask another question: the Schumachers have done many things in F1 as brothers. But they have not done one thing that brothers have done previously in F1. And that would be...?

A shared drive (i.e. one brother acted as the relief driver for the second)?

Ring the bell, we have a winner. For those interested I am talking about the Fabi brothers who shared a Brabham-BMW drive.

I think it must be Teo Fabi, although he briefly took the lead from team-mate Berger somewhere or other but retired within yards, so never actually completed a lap in the lead.
Edit: Austria? Must be '86 if so....

Yeah you're spot on about it being Austria 86 as it's in the season review and I can remember watching it

How did he win it? By scoring more points than anybody else in the sport that season perhaps?
