March 802
I thought I'd start this thread to see what we can gather about March 802s.
The Lawrence March book 25 were built and, according to the F1 Register book, chassis 4, 5, 6, 7, 12-18, 20 and 22 appeared in Europe:
At Thruxton in April, again according to the F1R, allocations were:
802-4 works/spare
802-5 works/Fabi
802-6 works/Thackwell
802-7 works/Winkelhock
802-13 Project 4/spare
802-14 Lisa Racing/Devaney
802-15 Fredy Schnarwiler
802-16 Project 4/de Cesaris
802-17 Project 4/Serra
802-18 Project 4/spare
802-22 Kim Mather
Later sightings are 802-12 (Jurg Leinhard) and 802-20 (Mike Earle/Cecotto).
Plenty reappear in 1981, again using the F1R book: 802-8, 12, 15, 17, 19, 20 and 22.
Bryan has found an ex-Can-Am March 802 in New Zealand which had been Jerry Molnar's "Invader" in 1983 and 1984. This is wearing a Chico Serra cockpit surround so will presumably turn out to be 802-13, 802-17 or 802-18 but what other 802s do we know about? There were several in hill climbs weren't there?
