Twins? Distant relatives?

Post by Nuppiz »

Whilst making a 1989 Mod for Grand Prix Manager 2, I discovered quite a similarity with two drivers:

Nelson Piquet Snr. in 1989:
Image
Emanuele Pirro in 1989:
Image

Both have quite similar faces, quite similar hairdos and same expression on their face! Although they aren't relatives in any way, you gotta say that they look a bit the same. :geek:

If you have any other comparisons, post 'em!

I don't know about you but these 2 look pretty similar (For those of you that live under a rock Chris Martin is the lead singer of Coldplay)

Ernie Buemi



I can't really tell why but from the first time I've seen Buemi I had this association. Though Bert's eye brows look more similar to Chandhok.
