funformula should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Sorry to create some more confusion.

I had a look in the German January 2002 issue of "F1-Magazine". There is an article about the Arrows A2.
The article says that the car shown in the pictures it is A2-1 only driven by Patrese in seven GP´s in 1979. The pictures show the car with the modified roll-hoop, No.30 on it and with Mass´s name written on both sides. It is not mentioned in the article why it is not in Patrese outfit any more.

There is a statement from Jackie Oliver telling about the history of the A2. He said that there were two cars built, the one in the pictures and one he still ownes (in 2002).

That suggests that Oliver owned A2-2, or is there maybe a fault in the translation for the German issue? Does anybody have the English issue of F1-Racing to check this?
