I saw some pics on another motorsport forum. We could know in the upcoming Williams Launch.

BTW. I love F1, I own all recent Reviews, any more fans here?

Coming up on Friday ... all will be revealed! :)

While I'm no longer fanatical about F1 (Le Mans/ALMS appeals more to me in some ways), I still follow pretty closely, and watch most of the races. And this season should be good: with Schumacher retired and the top drivers shuffled, there should be some surprises in stock!

Has anybody watched the A1GP on Speed? That's some pretty good racing. I miss their WRC coverage.

As long as you have Speed on your cable or satellite service, yes.

I shot F1 for Road & Track and other magazines in the '70s and '80s, hence my f1reverb (reverb for surf/instro music). You might find this shot of mine of interest as it won R&T the Best Sports Stories 1983 competition awarded by the Sporting News . . .

Very nice shot of Arnoux!

I have been shooting racing for the past few years (though not F1) but no prospects of being able to do it full-time at this point. And nothing to compare to this shot, either.

Do you have more photos on your web site? And do I remember correctly having seen your name in GPI (when that fine magazine still existed)?

The BSS shot is Pironi as it's 1982. Arnoux started with Ferrari in 1983 (the problem with book titles). My website is really just a space to store stuff. In Grand Prix International my shots were credited to my agency as Autopresse International, but here's a link to a few, and some more R&T shots (all tearsheet scans) . . .

Oops -- should have checked the helmet design (don't remember most of them that far back!), just made that 1983 assumption.

Impressive work, though ... and I actually recall that Rosberg shot from GPI.
