Nice gently quiz to start the week off.

Today, it's "name the driver". Some are easy, some are hard.

Photo 1.

Who's driving the Benetton B188 F1 car.





Photo 2.

Who's the Jordan driver?




Photo 3.

It's 1983, the car is a Williams FW08C, but who's just about to take it out. Bonus point if you know the track?





Photo 4.

Name the person just about to take the Williams out? Again bonus points if you know the circuit




Photo 5.

Up to date now, who's this testing at Fiorano?

Might not be who you think it is.




Photo 6.

Another driver in a Williams, but who's this?





Good luck

Phot 2 - that looks like Mansell's helmet but I don't recall him driving a Jordan.

As a guess I'd say the following:

1. Mika Hakkinen
2. Nigel Mansell
3. Senna at Donington
4. Tommy Makkinen
5. Valentino Rossi or Max Biaggi
6. Scott Dixon

Could be wrong though....

Chris

Edited to add Donington to Senna photo and to cover all eventuallities with photo 5!!!!

Still time for your answers, know one yet has said where Photo 4 was taken?

The the driver in photo 4 crashed at 175mph doing "extensive damage" when he changed down to 4th instead of up to 6th on the gearbox.

PS If it helps Mick Doohan also drove the Williams at the same time.
