[sameerrao]

For the 5th question... - Ricardo Londono (Brasil 1981... but he didn't classified for the race) - Roberto Guerrero (South Africa 1982 - USA-West 1982 / Ensign-Ford / 29 Grand Prix Entries - 21 Grand Prix Driven)

Correct - Roberto Guerrero as the first one who completed a race..

I knew you meant BMX also....

OK.. so here goes the results and further clues

1. Clue: Is known more for his qualifying skills and less for his interviewing skills. He has won the world championship. Not a current driver
2. Alex Wurz - BMW Champion - Guessed by Dani_d_mas
3. Clue: Think current day test driver here
4. Clue: Le Mans 1999 ... Guess the car and drivers involved
5. Roberto Guerrero - Guessed by Dani_d_mas
6. Hungary 2003 - with Alonso, Raikonnen and Montoya on the podium - Guessed by Dani_d_mas
7. Jarno Trulli is the correct driver here - he was named after Finnish motorcycle world champion Jarno Saarinen - Guessed by SPAD
8. Fiat 500 also owned by Jean Alesi - Guessed by Dani_d_mas
9. Clue: the only post-humous world champion
10. Jacques Villenueve and Craig Pollock - Guessed by Dani_d_mas

3. well Nikki Lauda owned a business (air line) before he has an f1 driver
9. jackie stewart

[sameerrao]

3. well Nikki Lauda owned a business (air line) before he has an f1 driver 9. jackie stewart

3. No. Lauda raced with Ferrari in the 70s before he set up Lauda Air in the 80s. He rejoined racing with Mclaren in mid 80s. Marc Gene is the correct answer here.

9. No. Jackie Stewart while flamboyantly dressed with his long hair and tartan outfit is very much alive today. So he doesn't qualify. Jochen Rindt is the correct answer here.

Only Item #1 is pending ...
Clue - His initials of his name is a measurement of speed
Another clue- he is a double WDC
Another clue - Since his retirement from racing he occasionally participated in rallying.
Another clue - He comes from a country famous for multiple WRC champions and one other F1 driver's champion

#2,3,4,6,7,10 are fully or partially correct.

Eddie irvine... no wait he had the biggest mouth...dont know

If a championship was awarded for talking, he would win it surely ... Irvine the self-proclaimed "Second-best driver in the world". Actually Irvine was not a bad driver - he was pretty consistent. He wasn't the fastest by any means but he could be counted on for steady stream of podiums. He did his best in Monaco and Suzuka...
