Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was Jacques Villeneuve's best result of 2005?

Answer: 4th

Jacques drove superbly to silence his critics in Imola and finished sixth, which eventually became fourth after B.A.R. were disqualified.

2. Which race did Anthony Davidson sub for Takuma Sato?

Answer: Malaysia

Taku was down with a bad flu which allowed Davidson to take his seat, but his engine blew after only a couple of laps into the race.

3. Who was Jordan's main sponsor in 2005?

Answer: Sobranie

This had been used in previous years as an alternative to Benson and Hedges, owned by the same company.

4. Where did Fernando Alonso finish at Monaco?

Answer: 4th

Alonso drove brilliantly in defence with shot tyres, but couldn't hold off the two Williams' for a podium spot.

5. How many Grand Prix races did Kimi Raikkonen win in 2005?

Answer: 7

Kimi won the same amount of races as Alonso, yet frequent mechanical failures robbed him of the title.

6. Michael Schumacher's only win was at Indy?

Answer: True

If it weren't for the Indy farce, 2005 would have been Schuey's first winless season since his first in 1991.

7. How many races did Vitantonio Liuzzi start in 2005?

Answer: 4

It was assumed that he and Christian Klien would have split the races between them, but Klien ended up driving for most of the season after some strong drives.

8. Which races did B.A.R. fail to start in 2005?

Answer: Spain/Monaco

After being disqualified in San Marino for being underweight after the race, B.A.R. received a two-race ban.

9. How many points did Minardi score in 2005?

Answer: 7

With only six cars starting, Minardi were guaranteed points at Indy if they made it to the end, last and second to last.

10. What was the cause of the first safety car period in Shanghai?

Answer: Loose drain cover

A drain cover came loose in the early stages of the race, which was hit by Montoya and brought out the safety car for 7 laps.
