Don't engines today USE pneumatic valves?

Yes... the question said *without* using them.

[mnmracer]

D'oh!
Then 1993 Australian Grand Prix; I think Ford didn't switch until 1994.

[matt21]

Ford switched during the HB series 7

To end this round:

The last win was Monaco '93.
From the British GP on McLaren had their own pneumatic system ready. They could use this as the had customer engines and were allowed to modify them. Benetton had to wait until they received the Cosworth system as they were the factory team.

Anybody who has a good one please go ahead!

[matt21]

Who was the last driver, who has also won with a turbo car, to win a GP?

[shelly]

Nigel Mansell Australia 1994?

[matt21]

You´re turn

[CMSMJ1]

What about Gerhard Berger in 1997? german GP

He also won Mexico in 1986 in a turbo Benetton

[shelly]

I think that CMSMJ1 put the next question

[matt21]

Yes, I´m sorry.
I completely missed this one.

[CMSMJ1]

Cool - cheers guys. It was an obvious one!

SO..Which driver(s)* have won a GP with an IL4 engine, a V6 engine, a V10 and also a V12 engine?

I have one in mind. He never raced in GPs with a V8 engine..or I assume he would have won with one fo those too!
* It would ont surprise me to find that someone else has done this..but no-one I can find.

[beelsebob]

Prost.

Uhh my bad... no IL4s there... I'll go back to the previous answer... Berger.

[shelly]

Could be Berger again, bmw i4, ferrari v6 and v12, renault v10

While CMSMJ1 is sleeping the weekend off, let's go back to the glorious Chaparral 2H, which had a DeDion rear suspension.

This is a rather unusual contraption on modern racers, but at least one race-winning Formula One car in the 70s had it.

Name one make, model and driver to win a GP in the 70s with a DeDion-type rear suspension?
