I thought that might be Paul rather than Jackie.

Pretty sure it was Paul Stewart doing the Team America secret signal.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Jackie's tartan was blue, black and red.

Paul's was mainly green.

On Thursday, I was speaking to the chaps who look after the Tyrrell and they told me it was Paul who owned it.

Mark Stewart owns it

Paul owns the 1971 003 which is in a Scottish museum

Not sure which brother is in the car in that clip though, Mark certainly drove it yesterday at some stage

Fair enough. Definitely not Jackie though. Jackie was driving Jim Clark's Lotus 38.

it might be as the one that's at donnington is from the Australian GP iirc and I think I read that Bruno would be driving the car Ayrton won his last GP in.. So that would match.

And how long before someone from BRAKE complains about that?

I mean seriously though, that car's got a stick shift I think, and he was driving at 100mph one handed...biggrin

I thought the MP4/8 had padel shift by then... Might be wrong, but I agree with the sentiment, some fool will clearly see that this is exactly tw same as someone texting on a motorway :rollseyes:

Paul, Mark and Jackie drove the car during the weekend. Lovely car the 006 Tyrell and it was nice to see Roy, Jackie's period mechanic looking after the car at the event.

The 6 Wheel Tyrell in shot was looked after by my team, as well as the FTD winning Williams FW05 of Roger Wills and the Lola T290 driven by Anthony Reid which set 2nd fastest car time after Roger, sadly Anthony spun in the shootout so didnt get the prize for class win, he was certainly trying for overall FTD at the time though. biggrin

Doing a 1m02s time after spending over 10s spinning and being stationary before getting back up to speed was still a good run. Would have been the best time if he hadn't dropped the left rear on the dirt out of turn 1.

It was very close between Roger and Anthony, Anthony was fastest on Friday, Roger fastest on Saturday by .01s and then Sunday morning Roger set a really stunning time in the mid 45s, over 1s quicker than the final TV run. It was Anthony's first run in the car Sunday, tyre temps were quite low compared to the other runs so it was easy to not get the first corner 100% right, but when going for FTD you have to still push it and see what happens.

Nice seeing them on thier original tyres instead of the obligatory avons, although some think these cars should be used and not just looked at... they may have a point.
