not yet. I´m trying!

by **The Passenger** » 07 May 2010, 04:36

Well, I don't know how special this is (I mean, it's kinda obvious, really), but you can type in HWNSNBM and it will be accepted unless you've entered his full name there already.

by **Klon** » 07 May 2010, 04:48

You got 56 out of 82 F1 drivers with no better than 4th; 5th and 6th; or three 6th places since 1990.

Okay, for some I missed I'm enraged at myself, but for not exactly knowing how to spell Chandhok I feel ripped off :mrgreen:

Oh, is the special thing supposed to be that HWNSNBM results in a legit answer?

by **Cynon** » 07 May 2010, 05:33

Got 45 on my first go.

Hang on, where's Pierre-Henri Raphanel and Adrian Campos?

In the 80s.

It is, it's the first name I entered.

Cynon wrote:Got 45 on my first go.

It's from 1990 onwards.

by **DonTirri** » 07 May 2010, 15:23

I got 68/77. Then I started kicking myself for forgetting Bernoldi, Algersuari, Kobayashi and a few others.

I was up to my neck in trouble until I realized that simply typing the last name was enough

Bingo!

by **watka** » 08 May 2010, 06:59

Got 61 this time. Grosjean really is a forgettable driver.

by **Pieman** » 08 May 2010, 08:49

First go with the new data - 75 out of 82.

I forgot Hulkenberg is still a reject, I missed out Papis :oops:

and every time I play this I always forget Kiesa, Takagi and Lammers.

by **cretoxyrhina** » 08 May 2010, 19:38

75/82. I can't believe I forget both Ricardo Rosset and Vincenzo Sospiri! :oops:

by **Pieman** » 28 May 2010, 10:02

Has anyone managed a full house on this yet? Just tried it again and frustratingly got 81/82 - the only one I missed was Antonio Pizzonia.

by **f1-gast** » 28 May 2010, 15:26

How to apply a driver name ?
I can't get out of it

by **Jeroen Krautmeir** » 28 May 2010, 15:44

I got a 62/82!

I missed Chandhok and Buemi among others.

by **Yannick** » 08 Jan 2011, 08:41

Bleu, please update the game some time before the start of the 2011 season, including the removal of those who have unrejectified themselves by now. Has it really only been Vitaly Petrov to achieve this feat?

by **Yannick** » 24 Jan 2011, 21:38

Wht about Enrico Bertaggia?

by **tommykl** » 25 Jan 2011, 02:50

Yannick wrote:Wht about Enrico Bertaggia?

IIRC, he never actually drove during a GP weekend. He was entered, but the car never left the garage.

by **DanielPT** » 25 Jan 2011, 03:10

Only 40 to me... :cry:

by **QuickYoda41** » 25 Jan 2011, 11:42

60/82 - I won't try it right afterwards again, it would be too easy. Perhaps a week or two later.

Actually it's 60/81, as Petrov is on the list despite not being a reject.

I missed 4 (McNish, Kiesa, Winkelhock, Bourdais) from "my time"

by **Pointrox** » 18 Feb 2011, 07:22

I decided to have another go.
This time 32 rejects out of 82

by **stupot94** » 28 Feb 2011, 08:24

24
Kicking my self.
Would have been 25 if I could spell Schiattarella

by **Bleu** » 28 Feb 2011, 18:31

I will update it once the Australian GP weekend is over, so I can add the debutants.

by **FullMetalJack** » 02 Mar 2011, 03:49

D'Ambrosio WILL unrejctify himself.

Can I have that in writing please???

If D'Ambrosio ever unrejectifies himself, I will publish an avatar saying "Vive Virgin Racing" because there is no way in heck that D'Ambrosio will unrejectify himself, simply because he got there due to his sponsorship cash, and I've barely heard of him before he got signed. It took me a fledging week to spell his name right!!! With the fledging accents!!

There is an "avatar challenge" thread somewhere in the Paul Stoddart forum. Unfortunately due to Heidfeld getting the drive over Senna at Renault, my bet with Phoenix looks damned.

Surely we, being the rivals that we are, need to find something to make such a challenge for.

My bet was damned as soon as Kubica had the accident because now Mercedes have about 50 million oppertunities to go one-up on Kubica.

I let you commute Bruno Senna with any of the rejects that are competing at this season.

by **golic_2004** » 14 Mar 2011, 10:42

78/82 Drivers correct
Kobayashi will not be on that list much longer.

by **JeremyMcClean** » 14 Mar 2011, 12:13

70. All but one that I missed were ones I've actually heard of. Examples are Beretta, Lammers, Bernoldi, Perry freaking McCarthy, Bruni and Magnussen.

Petrov is on there but his fifth in Hungary and sixth in Abu Dhabi make him a.... erm... un-reject!

Petrov was on the list??? I'm surprised.

by **Aerond** » 15 Mar 2011, 10:14

Agh ... just 51. Lack of training

by **Phoenix** » 16 Mar 2011, 03:36

59 out of 82, I've improved

by **Bleu** » 28 Mar 2011, 01:25

New (updated) one here:

by **Pieman** » 28 Mar 2011, 10:36

I got 71 on the first go with the new quiz - McNish, Grouillard and Magnussen were among my omissions, and every time I play I forget Pantano and Kiesa largely because I barely remember them being in F1 in the first place.

(Bleu, you've missed one out too - Domenico Schiatterella.)

by **JeremyMcClean** » 28 Mar 2011, 11:25

I kept entering Nico Hülkenburg; but it wouldn't come in.

by **Pieman** » 28 Mar 2011, 21:58

JeremyMcClean wrote:I kept entering Nico Hülkenburg; but it wouldn't come in.

That's because it's spelt Hulkenberg.

Then again I can't talk, as I've just noticed I spelt Schiattarella wrong in my above post. :lol:

by **tommykl** » 30 Mar 2011, 03:47

I've done 79. Not too bad.
