Driver isn't in the car, but... the state of the car says "memorable crash". At what track did it happen, to what driver and in what year? :)

Clue to make it easy: The driver had a reputation as a major blocker.



Quickly, because I'm about to nod off, it's late at night here.

Andrea de Cesaris, Austrian Grand Prix 1985 Ligier JS25?
 
Andrea de Cesaris, Austrian Grand Prix 1985 Ligier JS25?

Ah, you beat me to it. On a side note, it's definitely Ligier, since the team used numbers 25 and 26 quite often. Not to mention they had the Renault turbo engine.

Clue to make it easy: The driver had a reputation as a major blocker Crasher.

Well, they didn't call him Andrea De Crasheris for nothing : p

Didn't he crash at a fast left hander? A corner without tyre wall or the armco barrier. Poor De Crasheris pretty much rolled his car over and over, he was very lucky to walk away from that crash.


edit : there, even upload a clip for you guys.

Yup. gti138, go ahead. :)

(de Cesaris "established" himself as a blocker some time in 1982 by holding up Keke Rosberg at Dijon for about 6 laps even though Keke was trying to lap him. And then he did it again in the same race to the same driver.)

Beatrice Lola-Ford THL2, Adelaide, 1986, practice. Driver... white helmet, so it's AJ (Alan Jones). If the helmet had any blue on it, it would have been Tambay.
 
Correct...

I kinda knew you'd know vikrad :)

Car, track, year and driver (probably the latter is the easiest to guess). Bonus points for guessing who else was involved in the incident.
 
1985, Monaco, Nelson Piquet (the non-shit one), Brabham-BMW BT54, Crash with Ricardo Patrese?
 
I'll sit out the next couple as well...

Here's the next one...

Usual please, Car, driver, circuit, year. Bonus marks if you get the same for the guy behind him...

Monaco, 2004, Montoya, FW26. And I think that's Webber behind in Jaaaaag.
 
It's from 2004 at Monaco. The car is the FW 26 (BMW-Williams back then) and it's driven by Montoya.
EDIT: Shit, too late
 
I'm asking about the blue and white car, but if you like you can try with that second one too.

Could go for bonus points and get the 3rd car (entering the pitlane too!)
 
I want to say the first lap of the 1984 Detroit GP -- the race that got restarted and Piquet got in the backup car and won.

That's the late Marc Surer in the Arrows...and Alliot in the background in the RAM?
