1 april 1976. Iedereen die het hoorde dacht dat het een grap was maar toen we de 6 wieler die dag in Zolder voor het eerst konden zien rijden was het :shock:

Meer banden is ook meer weerstand natuurlijk. Wel is het mooi te zien hoe de aerodynamica steeds meer telt. Toen waren de vleugels vaak gewoon recht, das nu allang niet meer zo!

Ben in het museum geweest. Als je ooit naar Donington gaat, mag je dat gewoon niet missen, echt indrukwekkend.

Ferrari, Brabham en March hebben ook getest met dubbele achterwielen, hetzij achter elkaar, hetzij naast elkaar.

Maar vreemde F1 wagens, hmmm, March 711 met zijn gekke voorvleugel:

Benetton B193 met 4WS:

Lotus 63 met 4WD:

Williams FW15C met CVT:

Lola F1

DAMS F1

Er zijn er nog wel meer die wat aparts hebben...

A real Formula One opportunity came for Schlesser in 1968 with Honda. The Honda team had completed an experimental air-cooled F1 car (dubbed the RA302) which was tested by their works driver John Surtees. Surtees pronounced it as not ready for racing, and a potential deathtrap. Undaunted, with the financial help of Honda France, Honda entered it for the French Grand Prix at Rouen-Les-Essarts. Being the local hero, Schlesser was hired to drive it.

Fatefully, after only two laps, the car slid wide at the Six FrÃ¨res corner and crashed sideways into a bank. The magnesium-bodied Honda and 58 laps worth of fuel ignited instantly, leaving Schlesser no chance of survival. As a result, Honda withdrew from Formula One at the end of the 1968 season.

A friend of Jo Schlesser's, future Formula One constuctor Guy Ligier always gave his cars type numbers beginning with 'JS' as a tribute to Schlesser.

His nephew Jean-Louis Schlesser later became a successful racing driver, who started one Formula One grand prix and won the Paris Dakar.

Niet zo'n goede zet van Honda destijds om in een tijd dat brand een groot gevaar was toch een magnesium auto in te zetten....... RIP Jo....

Maar wie wil winnen moet bereid zijn tot "the edge"te gaan. Denk aan Colin Chapman altijd op het randje. RIP Jo.

Gave auto's Wes, dielaatste had natuurlijk met Jan Lammers erin gemoeten :wink:
