Hello all,
I though it might be a good idea and quite good fun to start a little quiz in the F1 Forum since most people who are into Formula One like talking about it to others with the same passion? I hope that you will find it interesting and feel the need to take part even if you don't normally post in the Motor sections as this is open to anybody on the ModelSpace Forums regardless of any modelling interest?
** PLEASE NOTE ** - There are NO prizes on offer, it's just for fun and there's only a handful of simple rules:
RULES
All questions MUST be Formula One/Grand Prix related. They can be about any part of the sport, be it Cars, Teams, Drivers, Championships or whatever, but it HAS to be relevant to the sport of Formula One/Grand Prix Racing and includes anything from the earliest beginnings around the turn of the 20th Century to the present day - not JUST the modern FIA Formula One Championship that started in 1950.
Whoever posts the correct answer to any question, then gets to post the next question, but ONLY after their answer has been accepted as correct by the person who posted the original question.
IF AFTER 48 HOURS NO FOLLOW UP QUESTION IS POSTED BY THE PERSON WHO GAVE THE CORRECT ANSWER TO THE PREVIOUS ONE, THEN A MEMBER OF THE FORUM SUPORT TEAM WILL TAKE THE STEP OF SETTING ANOTHER QUESTION BY PROXY AND THE PERSON WHO HAD THE OPTION WILL THUS MISS THEIR GO. LIKEWISE, IF ANYONE SETS A QUESTION BUT THEN FAILS TO GIVE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT AN ANSWER TO THEIR QUESTION IS EITHER CORRECT OR INCORRECT, THEN AGAIN, AS OVERSEER OF THE QUIZ, THE FST WILL SET A NEW QUESTION BY PROXY.
This is purely to keep the quiz flowing and maintain the fun and interest for anyone who wants to take part.
If there is any disagreement by third parties over whether an answer that has been accepted as correct by the questions' author, is in fact wrong, then the author of the original question must mediate and decide on whether they should uphold their original judgement or accept the new answer as being correct. Whatever he/she decides is final and we move on to the next question.
Please try to keep any posts as being questions or answers - no idle chitchat unless it is relevant to a question or answer.
This is just for fun and entertainment, nothing else, so please keep it lighthearted and friendly peeps!!
I will start it off by asking the first question in the next post.
