ohh - that's a juicy one, well done Banana -
So gonna have to think backwards on this one
chief designer - Gordon Murray
Team Principle - would say Chapman, but he'd interfere too much - so will go with Toto
Drivers - won't surprise you here - Jim Clarke and Fernando
Livery colours - Lotus
Engine suppplier - may not make sense today - but Renault - the 1500 horsepower one they had in the back of the williams

Howdy Forza, yeah this is a great one, will have to update, flesh out and see how far, we can go with this one, I suspect, jody will have us all stuffed though as he probably know who drives the trucks, haha Gonna change team principle, and steal yours
Team Name -
The Wild Bunch
Team Boss - Ross Brawn
Secondary Team Boss - Eddie Jordan, good for a laugh, and will get the babes in
chief designer - Gordon Murray (and if we're allowed 2, I'll have Newey as well then)
Cheif Mechanic - Joe Ramirez
On the Radio - Rob Smedley - (title is now "
Head of Vehicle Performance" - think it's different at different teams though)
Engine Supplier - Renault
Drivers:
Jim Clarke
Fernando Alonso
Ayrton Senna
Livery Lotus 77
Tea ladies: Dorris or Maureen, the most Valuable members of any F1 team
Edit: and no - no-one can now have Dorris or Maureen, their contracts are water tight
edit 2: Max Mosley as FIA, President - he knew how to bang heads, and there's another question - who would you have running the sport, and before you guys start naming chiefs from the world of Moto GP, you'll needt to give reasons please

Howdy Forza - someone named a third one "aggie" I'd scoop her up quick - that's the equivelant - teams sharing info, won't happen again haha - not got a team Name Yet? or Can't call it anything but :Forza Ferrari" haha - also did you check out the Iconic images thread I started, would like to see others suggestions, Images, but for the life of me cannot findthe one with Kimi pointing to the red light in pit lane, do you know the year/race, may be able to get it then
Morini will not be happy though haha
