I don't believe it.

I actually don't believe it.

You're right.

I just scrolled randomly across the list of F1 drivers, stumbled upon his name, and I'd never heard of him before. And you got him right with the first guess of his name.

All congratulations to you!

And thus, I have managed to correctly guess a driver in 20 questions without one of those questions being "is this driver a reject?".

I have now chosen a new driver, so feel free to ask questions.
