F1 Quiz

Reply from: Stavros

Hello, I've created an F1 quiz on my blog to test you great F1 minds.

* whathappenedtomechachrome.blogspot . com /2008/04/challenge.html

If you fancy it then have a go and let me know how you get on! There
are only 8 questions - so far one person has got all 8 correct.

Cheers,
Gregor

Fun quiz. 7/8 for me. Didn't get the 7th one right. Unusual for me, as I
normally pay such particular attention to the drivers' helmets!

That's pretty good - I had to look up one of the answers before I put
the code together!!
I might start doing regular quizzes - it was fun!

Well, I wouldn't say I got the first one either right or wrong.
I got the shoddily-written web application's knickers in a twist
instead.

Your score was: 3/8

If you were an F1 Driver - you would be:
0 - Ricardo Rosset
1-2 - Pedro Diniz
3-5 - Rubens Barrichello
6-7 - Mika Hakkinen
8 - Gilles Villeneuve (or, insert your favourite driver here)!


In my defence, some of the questions were before I became interested in
F1.

Installment 2 - bit later than I'd hoped but what can I say. I'm a
bit rubbish something!

* w w w .massmediadesign.co.uk/Applications/Quiz/Quiz.aspx?QuizID=3D10

Feedback/bug reports welcomed - I've written some software that makes
putting the quizzes together much easier so hopefully I can make it a
regular thing.

Cheers,
Gregor
