looked it up now, I know the name but there's no way I would've got it if I'd guessed all week. Be surer to make it easier next time
Yeah... I completely failed on this one too.No way I was plucking that name out of the recesses of my brain.
Fellow F1 / Motor sports fans I give you Marc Surer . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Surer Surer's debut in Formula 1 took place at the end of 1979 and was somewhat troubled. He broke his legs in qualifying at the South African Grand Prix in an ATS at Kyalami in 1980, and again racing there in 1981 for Ensign. He recovered to give Ensign their best result with a 4th place at the 1981 Brazilian Grand Prix, also setting the fastest lap of the race. He later drove for Theodore before establish himself at Arrows for a couple of seasons, until BMW's support earned him a seat at Brabham for 1985. Surer returned to Arrows in 1986 but eventually retired from Formula One halfway through the season.
I only remember him because when I got into F1 ( 1981 ) there used to be a Magazine called " Grand Prix " . There was an interview with him and he said " I looked down , I could see the blood , and I thought to myself . Same Bloody place , same bloody accident , it's to bloody stupid for words " . He Loved horses , and had a stunning partner .
