Being of the inquisitive nature I was wondering why there were so many car changes during this season but it seems to be the same drivers and same cars just in different combinations......Can't seem to post a link here but google aurora F1 1979.
There also seemed to be alot of Italians in and out of Williams FW06s and has anyone got any info on the "Pilbeam MP42 Hart" which was driven by Patrick Neve.

Ony deal I remember was the Chevron B41,I think the only F1 car that never did a real F1 race? Sponsored by Durex,deal was for 3 or 4 up & coming drivers to get 3 goes each.First was Tiff Needell who had the best result and later got a one off in an Ensign .

...but you then go on to mention its appearance in several real F1 races

Perhaps you meant "world championship F1 race"?
