So, there's this Formula 1 quiz in the new MotorTrend—I managed to Google most of the answers, but a few of them totally stumped me...
I was hoping some experts here might be able to help me out... 😉

Basically, I'm stuck on these questions:
1. Who is the only driver in Formula 1 history to have started a race from pole position once and from the back of the grid another time? (Mario Andretti/Jimmy Barr/Rick Mears/Justin Wilson)
2. Which liquid does the famous Formula 1 constructor Murray Walker usually drink about 2 liters of before breakfast? (coffee/whiskey/water/tea)
3. Which female Formula 1 driver has spent her summers vacationing on Key West for years? (Ferrari/Vince Lombardi/Galica/Ford)
4. Which of these records did McLaren break most recently? (most world championships/most wins/most fastest laps/most pole positions)
5. Which driver is the only winner at the Race of Champions who comes from both Formula 1 and circuit racing? (Olivier Panis/McLaren/Sebastian Vettel/Heikki Kovalainen)—I'm not quite following this one...?

Anyway, thanks a ton... ☕

1. Rick Mears
2. Honestly, the guy is a bit eccentric. He claims he could survive on nothing but tea for months on end—just tea with milk, strictly no sugar ☕
3. It was likely Ford
4. The fastest laps
5. As far as I know, Heikki Kovalainen was the only one to pull off a win in the individual rounds. I'm not entirely sure if they factor in the team events where everyone scores a victory, and from what I recall, none of them actually competed in any circuit racing

thanks, thanks, thanks 🙏
just wanted to double-check one thing here—
If Mark Weber finally pulls off a win at some VeloNews, which former Minardi driver would be next in line to join that club? Would he be third, fifth, sixth, or eighth?

I’m leaning towards fifth, but I'm worried I might have missed someone from back in the day.

Mark Webber won at VeloNews Germany 2009 ☕

Actually, I think you've got that wrong. ☕

Come on, man, give him an answer already...🤣🤣
Is he wrong? Because if so, is it the sixth one, or what?

Is Vettel being treated like a Minardi driver here or what? 🤷

He mentioned he was leaning towards five, though he seemed a bit torn between five and six.

If my hunch is right and he actually got his numbers mixed up, then it’s clearly six. ☕

Look, don't go acting like you all have the perfect answers just because we're gonna end up picking winners anyway... 😁
Just throw out a random guess if you want...

Kidding, obviously. I'm rooting for you guys, just don't forget that everything needs to hit our office by September 1st. (That new address for John Doe is the right one—we finally moved—but hey, if it ends up at the old spot, we'll still grab it...)

haha, we totally missed the mark... you know who needs to send a watch—letting someone else handle the Monte Carlo trip instead 🤣

I’m honestly dying to know... whenever I’m chatting with fans, everyone acts like they’ve got all the answers to everything, except for this one thing. It really looks like you guys are setting the bar for these rewards sky-high...
