It's quite a time since I last got around to offering one of these 'What On Earth Is That?' collections. I intended to do one for Christmas Day but circumstances conspired against me. Anyway - begging your forbearance if this stuff bores you all to tears - here's a few from our GPL (Motorgraphs.com) archives for discussion/identification/interest...

Instant reaction! But where, Allen? There is a McLaren in the start shot at Spa, but no Serenissima engine... None of the shots are from Jersey - nor Brands Hatch - nor Watkins Glen - and only one is from Spa.

Is number 10 a Mildren - but that's not a Waggott engine in the back is it??
I can't wait to find out about umber 8, it's a great photo. It looks like an Indy Car from 1965-ish, with mildly offset suspension, but that's as much as I can offer.

No 14. I'm going to say Joyce Howard in the Cromard Special but I'm not going to say it with a whole lot of confidence...

N°11
A red cross.

No 9: the bodywork looks like the ATS when it was first presented to the press in early '63, not the much more tatty version that appeared in races.

This is all complete guessing. Is it Alberto Ascari? The car has left hand drive, so not an Italian sports car and seems to have a Swiss licence plate. Is it a BMW 328, but the wheel discs don't look like the pictures in the January 2011 "Automobile"? Would the location be Berne?No takers for No 1 yet then...

Wasn't he dead at the time?My guess for #2 would be Marimon's Maserati on "pole" at Pescara, 1954.
