Apparently, Reuter was so upset to have to share the drive with an old man, that the team decided to first give Cabral 10 laps to prove if he had the pace. By the end of those 10 laps, Cabral had beaten Reuter's and Ludwig's times!

By using this picture you gave the year and Forix as the source away. From there it took me three minutes to find it. You need to host the picture another time with different title. :lol:

There was an F1 driver in the mid-90s who had an unfortunate jinx. Every team he drove for (both as driver and test driver) went bust. Who is he?
