In accordance with tradition, here's my celebratory quiz for reaching 1,000 posts on the forum. This one is a lot easier than El_Bando's or Forza Ferrari's. Rules try to guess without using internet resources like Wikipedia, Formula1.com, or lewishamiltonsucks.com quote the question, or at least the question number, with your answer or it won't be accepted first correct answer wins and will be updated on the OP most correct answers wins any blatant cheating will be disqualified unless it's by a Ferrari fan in which case, in the event of a tie, it will count double 1.

1.12 Reintroduced in 2011, originally mid season, about 95? Edit: Just doubled checked this one online (sorry) - attempted introduction 95, actually effective 96. 2.8 Wasn't this actually Mosley himself??? 2.9 Raikkonen 2.10 Brundle or Murray I think? 3.12 Vettel's first win 3.2 Fewest finishers of a grand prix ever? 4 i think. 3.4 Wasn't that the race where Panis had a big shunt and broke his legs? It must have been around that period. 3.7 Was that DC's notorious first corner incident that took most of the grid out? Thinking about it, wasn't that also the race where MSC hit the back of DC lapping him, lost a wheel, retired, then went into the Mclaren garage to try and have it out with DC? Bad weekend for him! 4.2 I think, think its Coulthard (I seem to be guessing him a lot...), but that could be very wrong. 4.10 Must be the Vettel finger. EDIT: Damn, just realised I've bypassed 1000 posts. Mine'll be up sometime next week, probably about thursday, as I'm still revising for exams, if people will allow me to put it off for now?
4.10 Vettel 4.6 Pedro de la rosa ? 4.4 Bernie 4.1 Alain prost 4.2 Jenson? 2.5 David Coulthard, Australia 2008 2.12 Rubens Barrichello, Hungary 2010 2.9 Kimi Raikkonen, Canada 2008 3.2. ahhhhh I remember schumi crashing but I dont what else lol... 3.11 Lewis wins but in the end doesn't win 3.12 Vettel get's pole and wins 4.9 Waxwork of Lewis Hamilton lol???
Question 2: who said it and when (either the date/race or the circumstances is fine) 2.10 was not Brundle or Murray Walker. 3.12 You can have that as long as nobody improves on the answer. 3.2 Not quite - right reason, though (i.e. that's better than telling me who won it).
2.9 then was Raikkonen after Hamilton rear-ended him in the pitlane at the Canadian gp in, I'm guessing 07? No wait, Hamilton won it that year, 08? Trying to improve on 3.2, was it something like its the only time drivers who haven't finished have been awarded points? Mika Hakkinen and Mika Salo? I'm cheating slightly on this one, the race in question came up in discussion a few weeks ago, and I remember reading up on it. Desperately trying to remember who won it now, was it a Jordan? Jordan's only win or something? Something along those lines I'm guessing, maybe a drivers only race win?
Because DHC and SilverArrow edited their posts at 21:03, and I can remember what they posted before their edits, I'm going to take Mifune's answer next. 4.5 and 4.8 are correct.
I'll give you 1.12 even though you checked it because the answer's there now and you were more or less correct. 3.4 - Yes, but what was notable about the victory? We saw elements of it repeated in last weekend's race. 3.7 - Same - what was notable about the victory (and I don't just mean who won)?
4.4 Correct, 4.1 Correct. 4.9 - hmm... I was going to use the waxwork but I decided not to. You got him anyway. Actually, now I look at the photo I can't tell if it is the waxwork or not. 2.5, 2.9, 2.12 - Correct. 3.11 - good enough. 3.12 - again, not good enough. There's something more significant about that race than you or DHC have answered.
2.9 Yes but SilverArrow got there marginally before you, sorry. 3.2 wasn't Jordan. You correctly answered why it was notable earlier, but got a key fact wrong.
3.8. Austrian GP 2002 - the sad moment when barrichello moved over on the live for schumacher 1.4. team orders banned - 2002 after the above incident ? Edit : Didnt see your post, if you think im copying you silver
3.6 Schumacher won but he was isssued a stop go penalty for I think passing under a SC but he was given the penalty too late, he went into the pits anyway to serve it on the last lap but his pit box was past the line.
