Hello Rob, not sure why your aunts' pen was on the table where Jean-Paul and Marie-Claire were eating ice-cream and drinking coffee but it must have been relevant?   
I think I'll let Daran have the next question as he was kind of right in the first place but didn't say that he preferred to give the answer in French!! 
Over to you Daran my friend?
P.S. - are there many French speaking people in Stevenage? HaHa!!

Well Daran doesn't seem to want it so I'll set another one:
1. What was special about the engine that powered the 1971 Lotus56B?
2. Who designed the engine and how many BHP did it put out?
3. Which two F1 Championship races did it contest in that year and who drove the car in those races (different driver for each race, only one car was entered for each race)?

Formula One Management (FOM) which I believe is owned by Ecclestone is also based at Biggin Hill conveniently. FOM broadcast TV coverage from the races amongst other things and with the company being located in the airport campus, that makes it a simple logistical exercise to transport equipment to and from the races - no flies on old Bernie, eh?!! Just thought you'd be interested?
Your question TM?
