Rare Entries Quiz IV

Post by tubeguru »

I have had a request for a Formula 1-based quiz for round four. I hope you don't find it too niche - after all, all the answers will be easily-findable on the internet.

OK, let's see how we go with this one.

This is an F1-based quiz, so you'll need to do some searching for the answers or websites which might give lists of the stuff you're looking for. If you know nothing about F1 then you might learn something here! This quiz takes into account all official World Championship F1 results from the first race of 1950 up to and including Monaco 2011, although the very latest races would only affect question number eight. PM me the answers - don't post them here!

If you want clarification on a question just ask me - I had to read through number ten a few times myself as I was writing it, to make sure it made sense.

The deadline is 20.00 hours on Tuesday the 14th of June 2011, so that gives you two weeks to find the possible answers before we all argue over them.

1. Name a driver who has won three or more Drivers' World Championships.

2. Name a British driver who has won the Drivers' World Championship at least once.

3. Name a constructor which has won between two and six Constructors' World Championships inclusive.

4. Name a year in which the Drivers' World Championship was won by a margin of one point or less.

5. Name a driver who has won the Driver's World Championship below the age of 28 (in other words, they were no older than 27 years and 364 days on the day of the race at which they won it).

6. Name a year in which Adrian Newey designed the Constructors' Championship-winning car.

7. Name a year in which Michael Schumacher won at least eight races. (Wins from which he was subsequently disqualified do not count).

8. Name a driver who has scored a "perfect weekend" at a Grand Prix since the start of the 2005 F1 season. (A perfect weekend is pole position, race win and fastest lap).

9. Name a year in which a point was awarded to a driver for the fastest lap in a Grand Prix.

10. Name a year in which points scored by constructors in ALL of that season's races counted towards the Constructors' World Championship, up to and including 1990.

May I remind you all of the existence of this round of the Rare Entries Quiz.

I have received NO entries yet, and the deadline is Tuesday, the 14th of June - that's the Tuesday after next.

Thanks for the reminder; I probably would have forgotten otherwise.
