Was one of the drivers a current F1 team owner?
F1 Game #2 - Guess the car
- Thread starter vikiradTG2007
- Start date
Red_Bull
Gives you wings?
Was one of its drivers Swedish?
Hmm.. My question was "Did the car win at least one race?" And the answer is it "won some races" , why did I get only one point?
Was one of the drivers Italian?

Final batch of answers in. I may as well tell you the answer now.
Scoreboard so far:
Joc? 5
AnGuRuSO 4
gti138 4
matt2000 3
Gman333-x-Ferrari 3
Red_Bull 2
mclarensmps 2
Devon 2
American TG Man 1
It's going to be tight, and the first person to post the answer will win the round.
And so far we know that this car:
was not V10-engined,
was turbocharged,
was flat-bottomed,
was sponsored by a cigarette maker,
was not run by a British team,
did not race in the '90s,
won some races,
had a manual gearbox(obviously),
was driven by drivers who were never World Champions,
was not driven by any current F1 team owners,
did not kill any of its drivers,
and the driver pairing was Swedish-Italian (for most of the season).
and that this team
raced with similar liveries to this car for over 5 years,
was Italian,
and still exists in Formula 1.
(Sorry Joc?, I must have typed it in a hurry. Fixed now)

Indeed.
The Ferrari 156/85, the car that got Rene Arnoux fired from Ferrari (among other reasons) and the car that might have given Michele Alboreto a World Championship, had it been more reliable; for most of the 1985 season, the 156/85 was the closest competition to Alain Prost and the McLaren MP4/2B, eventually beating the Williams FW10 and the Lotus 97T to the runner-up spot in the Constructors' Championship.

Yes, it scored a 1-2 there, but the question is no longer scored, since the car has been guessed and revealed. Sorry.

The man with the green flag is waving it behind the grid...
The red lights have come on...
And the green light! They're all away for Round 3 of the game!

I don't recall ever seeing a Jamaican F1 car.
Three more stupid questions and a two-round no-score will ensue.
So far, rx7_ted and Joc? have taken an early lead.
