"Stars in reasonably different cars"

Ok, back with some photo's of drivers not in their usual machinery, either test driving or having their first F1 experience. Have a go there are some tough ones and some easy one to get you thinking, I'll give the answers tommorow.

PS, there are a couple of "ringers" in there, drivers not in their usual lid

But before those, here's an odd one for you, the year is 1986, the car is a Ferrari, but who's the driver?

Not that well up on helmets of the "modern" era (read - the last ten years). The only ones I think I can identify are Photo 1, Nigel Mansell and Photo 8 which looks awfully like Gilles Villeneuve.

Of all the answers so far the only ones not correct from anyone are 7, 9, 12 & 14.

Few clues needed for those maybe.

7 - Brother to a racing sister from a family run team. Got the Williams test for winning a certain engine manufacturers series title

9 - Gaellic driver now plys his trade in Sports Cars, former French F3 Champion, Porsche Supercup Champion.

12 - The real tester, he's one of the five Pacific drivers mentioned on here, process of elimiation. http://f1rejects.com/hall/olympics/

14 - Think former BTCC Champion.

But can anyone get the right 17
