Some stats would be nice. Like, the most selected drivers... Interesting picks, etc.

Well done everyone

No I could see that you had put lots of thought into your answer and consequently you were the winner. Hope you continue to join in. Your points will be added to the list and the winners will be announced at the end of the year and prizes awarded.

Glad you enjoyed it. Makes a change from the ordinary quiz.

Thx jacfan. That was refreshing.

M'kay...

[RE30B#16]

I have just read an interesting post by gkay

I just wish I could have seen Senna, Prost, Schumi, Hakkinen and Alonso race on the same track...

Which gave me an idea.
Instead of just the usual questions and answers this time I am going to make up a list of 22 drivers that I would like to see race each other. Hope this makes sense.
I want you guys to send me your list of 22 drivers and why you would pick them. Sort of like a team of the century.
I will award points on how many of mine you picked and also points for good reasons. You may put different drivers to me but if I like your reasoning then I will award points.
If you all hate the idea then let me know and I will have to work on a normal type quiz.

I know I'm late with this, how did I do, jacfan?
