Answer: 3

A 4th groove was added in 1999 in an attempt to further reduce the grip yielded from the tyres.
3. In which year was the first sector of Silverstone Grand Prix circuit radically redesigned?

Can you imagine Silverstone without Becketts?
4. How many years was the Argentine Grand Prix held in Buenos Aires in the 1990s?

Answer: 4

The circuit produced some fantastic races, notably 1998, but financial difficulties forced the venue to close to Formula One.
5. In which race did Eddie Irvine lead a Grand Prix for the first time?

Answer: Japan 1997

In the penultimate race of 1997 with Michael Schumacher fighting for the championship with Villeneuve, Irvine played the team game getting ahead of Villeneuve and supporting Schumacher.
6. Who did Vicenzo Sospiri and Ricardo Rosset drive for as teammates?

Answer: Lola Ford

The team was formed prior to the 1997 season. They both failed to qualify in the 1997 Australian Grand Prix, so the team removed itself from Formula One.

Answer: 2002

He came 3rd in Monaco and scored 11 wins in total.
8. Which team did Nigel Mansell race for in his final Grand Prix?

Answer: McLaren

What an ill-fated collaboration with McLaren in 1995, where he couldn't fit in the car, and then after 2 races walked away from F1 for good.
9. Who replaced Jarno Trulli for the last 3 races of 2004?

Answer: Jacques Villeneuve

Villeneuve replaced Trulli after a string of poor performances. Villeneuve finished all 3 races, but did not score any points.
10. In 1989, Formula 1 saw it's first 'Clutchless Manual Transmission' gearbox. Which team pioneered the flappy paddles?

Answer: Ferrari

Despite Lotus being the innovators of the 1980s with active suspension and traction control, it was Ferrari that designed the evolution from stick shift. Mansell won its maiden Grand Prix in a car that turned out to be very unreliable.
