Who, what, where & when (05)

[Reynard]

HereÃ*s the next renewal of Who, what, where & when.

The answers for Teaser 4 are as follows:

WHO: Jason Plato
WHAT: Pontiac Grand Prix / Bintcliffe Sport
WHERE: Rockingham Motor Speedway
WHEN: 2002

Congrats to Claire for being the first person to solve the complete question!

At the moment, John leads the league with 2 correct answers, while Claire and Racefan_uk each have 1.

Will have to make it a little bit harder this time *AGAIN*, so...

HereÃ*s another one... Again, the clues are all there if you know where to look. Remember ñ I will need those four pieces of information from you:

WHO: driver name
WHAT: the chassis, engine & team
WHERE: circuit at which the action took place
WHEN: the year the action took place

So hereÃ*s the next little teaser ñ good luck!

[John]

How hard?????

Its a white one. Thats the extent of my knowledge!! :p

Circuit might be Silverstone but no attempt at the corner name.

Over to a single seater expert for this one I think!!

[speedy king]

Total guess so please don't laugh!!

Rubens Barichello,????????
Honda,engine???????
Honda,chassis??????
Silverstone, Luffield??????
1989???????

[Reynard]

errrrr, nope... :) Well, both of you have got the Silverstone bit right though, which I'm quite impressed with.

Speedy King - the drivers in this quiz have competed in the BTCC at some point or are currently competing in the BTCC, so that's the starting clue!

I don't remember Rubinho ever having driven in the BTCC, in the '89 F3 (he drove in 1991) or even having a helmet like that... Got to give you the credit for trying, though! :)

[speedy king]

He has a red helmet! I have bad eye site!lol

David Brabham in a Ralt VW, Silverstone 1989?

1989's what I guessed for the year, so I just picked the champion.

[John]

At least you havent asked us to identify the car following as well!! :p

I'm off to search the web for all #10 cars in the past 15 years..... I may be some time!!! (On the other hand I expect I'll give up after 10 minutes)

Not a bad attempt actually thats one of the suggestions I was going to offer (having just visited the F3 website!!)

I have to be honest - that's exactly where I got the info from. 1989 Was 3 years before I even started watching F1, and about 8 years before I started watching F3!

[Reynard]

Nope - it's not David Brabham. ;)

His helmet was dark blue and white and the car he drove was plastered all over with Jewson sponsorship. Not just that, the '89 cars were a different shape to this one.

I started watching F3 in 1988 - the first full season that Paul Warwick did - and I've been following it ever since! :)

Driver: Yes
Circuit: Yes
Chassis: No
Engine: Sort of - VW was actually known as something else...
Team: No
Year: No

You're very close and on the right track, but I can't accept that as a complete answer. Keep trying :)

[John]

????????????
1993
Arnold Racing
Dallara
Fiat
????????????

[Reynard]

Nope, sorry, nice try, but it's not 1993 and it's not the Dallara... :)

The shape of the Dallara nose is completely different - the clue is the nose. (Had to say that given it's nearly Red Nose day!)

[Reynard]

I've gone through my pile of junk and dug out a picture of Warren in the Arnold Developments Dallara 933-Fiat. Although the pic is not very good, you can see that it is NOT the same as the teaser photo! :)

[John]

You must have even more time than me to waste (erm.. spend!) looking through motorsport archives!! ;)

[The Stig]

Me pooter was misbehaving so I've not been here for a couple of days. Rather enjoyed this little segment. Keep 'em coming Reynard, not too difficult though, might lose interest !!

[John]

But if they're too easy if u dont come on line for a while you'll have missed it (or in your case missed four!!) :p

[The Stig]

Nobody has missed much me being absent, my guessing, like the England cricket team, wouldn't trouble the scorers. Don't you miss a lot being offline or away for a few days.

[AussieV8]

Of course we missed you stig.

Do you guys play cricket :confused: :confused: :p :p :D

It has been known - and occassionally we even beat the Australians! :p

[Reynard]

Come on guys, you're really close to guessing this one - you've got the right idea! :)

Besides, I've got loads of other interesting ones waiting to be identified...

This one isn't *THAT* difficult

[Stuart]

Ok, how about this....
Warren Hughes
Ralt RT36 Mugen
Edenbridge Racing
Silverstone

[John]

1992?

[Reynard]

Nope :) Well, almost, Stuart...

Except the engine isn't a Mugen, Everything else is there...

John - and you've got the year right :)

C'mon guys - just another little effort

[John]

Vauxhall/opel?

[Stuart]

Its 1992 so it must be a Vauxhall engine.....??!!

[Reynard]

Noooooo - not Vauxhall.

Want the manufacturer/tuner.

First COMPLETE correct answer gets it i.e. I need ALL the info.

[John]

Spiess??

[Reynard]

COMPLETE ANSWER REQUIRED :)

[John]

Doh!

Hughes
Silverstone
1992
F3
VW Spiess
Ralt RT36

[Reynard]

At last!!! :)

Well done John for being the first person to give the complete correct answer.

The next renewal of Who, what, where & when will be posted shortly... (need to rummage around on my PC for something suitable) ;)

Current standings in the Who, what, where & when league are:

1) John (3)
2) Racefan_UK (1)
3) Claire (1)

Depending on the uptake, there may be a suitable recompense for the champion! :)

[John]

U can give that one to Stuart I reckon cos he got most of the bits right, I just had a lucky guess on the year (based on the fact it wasnt 1991 or 93) then once Stuart had said the car I went to Google!! (So think I should be DSQed from that round!!) ;)

[Reynard]

Fair enough, I shall give it to Stuart - glad to see someone being honest... :) However, most of the clues were already in previous posts, but then again...

So, the revised scores stand as follows:

1) John (2)
2) Racefan_UK (1)
3) Claire (1)
4) Stuart (1)

The next renewal of Who, what, where & when will be posted shortly... Watch this space!

[Stuart]

Ok.....I'm on a mission now!
Warren Hughes
Ralt RT36 Honda Mugen / Neil Brown (bit of a guess....)
Edenbridge Racing
Silverstone 1992 (GP Support race??)

Oops... note to self...refresh screen when coming back online....
Reckon Edenbridge must have tried every engine going in '92!

[Reynard]

Call it a day shall we :)

here's the correct answer:

WHO: Warren Hughes
WHAT: Ralt VW-Spiess RT36 (Edenbridge)
WHERE: Silverstone (where else in the peeing rain???)
WHEN: 1992 British GP support race

Warren actually won the race - probably the biggest single win in his career.
