Michael M should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
1927 is correct, and it was the the sports car race, and not the GP (although cars in both categories had been the same in those days). It was in fact great Rudolf Carracciola, and the correct type of the car was 27/680 S. 27 described the tax HP, 680 the engine size of 6.8 ltr, and the "S" stoods for "Sport". By the way, the car is still existing today in the hands of a German collector.
