Quite simple () in theory, below are twelve names, and all you have to do is pair them up and say what year it occurred. OK?

Bandini
Gurney
Hulme
Rodriguez
Clark
Ginther
Stewart
Spence
Hill
Rindt
Brabham
Williams

There is an easy way to solve the puzzle, can you find it?
Answers by PM only, please.

If you are bothered about an answer for this particular teaser simply Google Williams Ferrari driver. I did.

I GIVE UP,
THE BEATLES SONGS;

I SAW HER STANDING THERE.

REVOLVER.

Trying to figure out what the question setter was looking for?
Or trying to find an alternative answer that fits the clue?

Both methods elicit an outcome.

5- "Which Way You Goin' Billy?", The Poppy Family
6- "Don't Let It Die", Hurricane Smith

Only one of these meets the criteria of the puzzle. I suppose it does not matter if the answers are posted on the open forum, as they are mostly wrong any way
Have an other go. few do.

Yay, I got something right.

Unfortunately the only thing I got right was the fact that the answers Bob was seeking in the Beatles songs quiz didnt bear any similarity to my answers.

What is the other criteria? They're all 'Top Ten hits from 1970, 71,73, and, 74'

The picture in 247 is of Amschel Rothschild at a VSCC meeting, and at Copse.

[Peter Mallett]

I stand corrected. My how that circuit has changed.

Malcolm, I am obviously using a different 'Top Ten' source, in any event only one o0f your answers fits 'my version'. It is quite likely that your selection makes perfect sense using a different list.

This is mine, so try again?

Peter, I assumed you were referring to the earlier post showing Robs, at the GP

I was not correcting you. I'm far to nice to do that.

Aah - I see the difference.

I blame the question setting. You are looking for a song that is in the Top Ten of those years, not a song that was a Top Ten from those years.

1- "Lola", The Kinks - #2 in the UK
2- "Snoopy vs. the Red Baron", The Hotshots - #4 in the UK
3- "The Pushbike Song", The Mixtures - #2 in the UK
4- "Something's Burning", Kenny Rogers and The First Edition - #8 in the UK
5- "Which Way You Goin' Billy?", The Poppy Family - #7 in the UK
6- "Don't Let It Die", Hurricane Smith - #2 in the UK

You can blame who you like, you still only got one right

The correct official answers are;

She - Charles Aznavour 8th. 1974

Spirit in he Sky- Norman Greenbaum 7th 1970.

The Pushbike Song - Mixtures 6th. 1971

When Will I See You again - Three Degrees 4th. 1974

Leader of the Gang - Gary Glitter 8th 1973.

Eye Level - Simon Park Orchestra 2nd 1973.

Love the She song but nothing obvious… I thought the Camaro picture could be Femme like you by K.Maro. Or more likely Lève le capot qu'on voit l'moteur by Les Compagnons de la chanson. Or was it Charles Trèsnet? Mireille Mathieu may be? WTF!
