Grand Prix Rejects

1974 United States Grand Prix - Part 2 Race The hearts of the 4 championship hopefuls thumped against the outer walls of their rib cage. Ferrari, McLaren, Brabham, Tyrrell, all of the teams sat anxiously awaiting the drop of the green flag. With championship leader Ettore Visconti in 13th he would ...

Visconti

1974 United States Grand Prix - Part 1 Pre-Race With one of the closest championship battles heading into the final round, any number of possibilities could happen. 1972 champion Emerson Fittipaldi could win his second championship if he manages to outscore crowd favourite and rookie Ettore Viscont...

Visconti

Will GT6 be arriving for the PS4 at all? Can't find anything on it, and that's the determining factor on whether I buy one or not .

Visconti

1974 Grand Prix du Canada Pre-Race Following the heartbreaking result of Visconti at his home race, his hopes of securing the title in his first full season seemed to be easing farther and farther away from his grasp. Now 7 points down on the consistent Emerson Fittipaldi and 3 down on the fast but...

No. In fact, they don't even have a web domain any more

There still seems to be Andrea Moda shops in Singapore, so I suppose they must still be going

Visconti

I was testing out the new F1 1990 mod for rFactor last week. There is a problem with Bertrand Gachot, he was way too quick and he qualified in 6th place at Monza!

Visconti

1974 Gran Premio d'Italia Pre-Race Heading into the final 3 rounds, the title race was heading to an immense end. Ettore Visconti was proving himself as one of the most formidable drivers on the track but lacking the consistency to have taken a dominant hold over the championship. Scheckter briefly...

Visconti

In Le Mans 2007 I believe, I remember I think it was Mike Rockenfeller who crashed early in the race on his first start. When he got out he sat down by the car almost in tears.

Visconti

1974 Grober Preis von Osterreich Pre-Race Ettore Visconti's success with the new Alfa meant that the Brabham team would be assigned an Alfa engine once again to Visconti in final round at Watkins Glen. Alfa's interest in the US Grand Prix was the possibility of Visconti winning the championship, wh...

I have a huge amount of 1992-4 Lotus F1 merchandise hidden in the house somewhere. I've seen it, but not in a long while. Of course, historically they're not a reject team but 1994 was an awful year for them

I'd rather Johnny Cecotto Jr.

Backmarker wrote:wrsgo, hello to a twitter friend - what makes you think Gasly, Boschung and Olsen will be signing up to Red Bull?

Gasly turned down a Red Bull Junior Team position I believe at the start of 2013, although I am not 100%. He's definitely featured once on the Red Bull motorsport website.

Visconti

One name seems to always go missing in the Red Bull junior team - Mitch Evans. In his first GP2 season he's beating Cecotto soundly in the points and has picked up a few podiums. I know he's not a contender for the next couple of years but I think he could make the step up shortly after. His result...

Bellof doesn't have experience in F1, but he won 3 races in the WSC with Porsche so he has some form of experience with cars in excess of 300kph.

Visconti

1974 Grober Preis von Deutschland Pre-Race The famous green hell played host to the German Grand Prix once again with the title battle become tighter and tighter. With 5 rounds to go, mathematically any driver could still win the championship but realistically only the top 7 could win the title. 6 ...

Visconti

I reckon Van der Garde can be pleased with himself, a heroic drive not that dissimilar to how Senna drove in Japan 23 years ago

Visconti

1974 British Grand Prix Pre-Race Brabham officially secured Alfa Romeo flat-12's for use in the 1975 season, with Alfa Romeo offering engines for Visconti in the German and Italian rounds of the season, and also to Carlo Facetti in Monza. Pace also officially confirmed that he had joined Brabham. S...

So shocking to have heard and so sad. It would be fantastic for a tribute to her, yet unfortunately with all the regulations now you can't even bring a flag into you car.

Yeah, he's a better rider too.

Gah, I always forget that

Visconti

1974 Grand Prix de France Pre-Race Rumours were growing that Embassy-Hill had lost the Alfa Romeo deal entirely to Brabham. After Visconti paid a visit to the Alfa offices, it seemingly was the determining factor in Alfa's decision to follow the Brabham route. Rumours were also building that Alfa R...

Visconti

1974 Grote Prijs van Nederland Pre-Race 2 months on from his horrific shunt at Nivelles, Ettore Visconti made his return to the track at Zandvoort-a track which had claimed 2 drivers (Piers Courage, Roger Williamson) in the past 5 years. Not the nicest of circuits to make a return from a near life ...

Visconti

A large contract for Ayrton Senna would be best following an easy championship win in the British F3 (considering how Martin Brundle wasn't present for it). As a second driver, I would suggest Jonathan Palmer on a medium contract, after winning the European F2 championship with 6 races wins and 4 mo...

Visconti

May I suggest Corrado Fabi? Based on F2 results, he's an outstanding driver despite his struggles in the Osella.

Visconti

I had legitimately not heard of Richard Robarts before Not surprising really, he was pretty awful and only ever arrived in F1 because of his money. Only other notable appearances were 3 Formula 2 entries. 1974 Grand Prix de Belgique Pre-Race Visconti had begun making a name from him self globally, ...

Visconti

1974 Gran Premio de Espana Pre-Race Visconti's dominating win at Kyalami in which he lapped the entire field set Ettore out as a certain competitor for the drivers championship. Meanwhile, Richard Robarts who had bought 3 race drives in the second Brabham had lacked any real pace and after the Sout...

Visconti

1974 Grande Premio do Brasil Pre-Race Following his victory at Buenos Aires, Visconti grew in popularity in South America as well as in Italy. Expectations were high for him, and with a new sponsorship deal with Rolex watches Ettore arrived in his new Alfa Romeo 2000 GT, rather than his traditional...

Some really stupid accidents in GP3 today!

Bruno Senna, I've met him once in real life and he was one of the nicest drivers I've had the chance to meet. In WEC though he has done well.

Unrelated to transfers, but anyone who lives in London, the Brentford vs AFC Wimbledon match is free for U18.

Visconti

1973 British Grand Prix Pre-Race The British media covered Visconti's arrival to Britain almost as widely as Jackie Stewart's. While Jackie's coverage was down to him being the home driver, Ettore's coverage was focused on a scuffle he had with James Hunt at Heathrow Airport. While at the baggage c...

This is the racing career of Italian nobleman, Ettore Visconti. I plan to simulate his F1 career of the early 70's into the early 80's with the help of rFactor. I've already completed 1973, and only have the points finishers and memory of the races I'd done. However, I only entered the Monaco, Frenc...

Increasingly depressing to see Rossi's slump in performance.

Visconti

Jacques Villeneuve was very, very overrated. Massa was somewhere near to Raikkonen in 2007, yet in 2008 maybe the car didn't suit his driving style or perhaps he was not motivated enough to stay in F1. Ferrari always forced him to do media days, which Raikkonen never liked. Somewhere near!? He was ...

Visconti

I don't think Felipe Massa was ever truly a superb driver, the car which he had in 2007 and 2008 was stronger than that of the opposition, and now he's in a car which is nowhere near being the best car on the grid. You can see that in his results that he improves as the car improves. Alonso out per...
