Thank you, I enjoyed seeing Nigel win- Nigel could drive well and fast but perhaps lacked the "steel" that others showed. The car he is driving is, without doubt, the most stylish and beautiful BRISCA F1 car of all time.....at least in my opinion! Do you agree?

yes this car really did look good and nigel could produce the goods when he needed

I was never a nigel 422 fan BUT have to agree - his cars from the clive lintern era did look great and he could turn it on and run with the best of them. my fave was the blonde bomber - 471 bobby burns. fantastic era the eighties. R.I.P Bobby 471
