Here is the new quiz for the month of March. You can either send answers via PM or post here.
I am not sure if there will be a prize but I am sure Ed will let me know.
I tried to make them a little bit hard but not too hard.
Good luck.



1. Who said “It's going to be a season with lots of accidents, and I'll risk saying that we'll be lucky if something really serious doesn't happen."?
2. What was the only Grand Prix where Michael Schumacher stood on the podium with both Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna?
3. Who won the 1st Australian Grand Prix at Melbourne in its recent spell on the F1 calendar?
4. Which formula one driver was also a concert standard pianist?
5. Which driver was a proficient target shooter and only just missed making the team for the 1960 summer Olympics?
6. Who is the only person who has been a world champion in both 500cc and Formula One?
7. In what year and at which track did Nigel Mansell lose the WDC when his car suffered a spectacular puncture? And for an extra two points name the cameraman that captured the action.
8. Which driver collaborated in the writing of his autobiography “To Hell and Back”?
9. Which driver always races with different coloured boots on each foot?
10. In 2006 which driver lost his FIA Super License due to erratic driving?

Something to ponder while waiting for Melbourne

.........................................

Only two entries for the quiz so far.

I cant do worse than

Yes only a few more days to go and I somehow think that I am only going to get two entries. Not sure if the questions were too hard or if people can't be bothered.

About half were not too hard,......I am confident I got 50% right

I thought of these answers while our cat Purrlione was in the process of giving birth to 5 kittens (so far)!!!

I guess I can no longer call her "baby cat"!

Ah, well I will settle for 3rd

Congrats on the kittens. What breed of cat is Purrloine? I used to breed Burmese many years ago. Kittens are so much fun.

I've PM'd my answers. I think that I can here laughter from Australia.

I have just found out that question 6. should be just the motorbike WDC not 500 cc. Sorry I was trying to figure out how to word the question and J looked it tonight and said that it was just the bike championship. So I hope that did not affect your answer.
