I gave up already. I hope someone gets the correct answer soon. I ran out of names and do not dig the idea of scavenging all over the Internet for F1 history on bad drivers... Will be waiting for the next question.

Only problem with that being that the first hint mentions the period between 1975-1990 :oops:

Too hot to bother looking for obscure drivers. Electricity was out for quite a while today and might go down again...

Guess I read too much about mediocre racers searching for the correct answer :lol: No worries, I will be back with the next question.

- My team-mates included Jochen Mass and Riccardo Patrese

I am Mike Thackwell and to this day I hold the record for being the youngest driver to ever race in Formula 1 at the age of 19 years, 5 months and 29 days. Even though there were high hopes for me, I never managed to finish a race!

Well done Julian Mayo!

The next 'Who Am I' in 24 hours!

So far our leaderboard is:
jacfan - 16
gkaytaz - 12
Julian Mayo - 9
cmlean - 8
Southernman - 7
GhoGho - 4
