Alain Prost. Cool.

You must be pretty chuffed eh?

 

Note"

I'm a tifoso, this test/ quiz is fatally flawed as far as i'm concerned

 

 

Seething, I got Emerson. I guess my atheist ways and love of sunglasses, deny my wish to be matched with Senna. 

 

I do have a Senna haircut at the moment, just with more of a fringe. I guess I can hold onto that 

So i suppose a bill for new keyboard has been sent to McLaren... i can only imagine what you would have done if it came out as Prost

I got Alain Prost, although I had trouble understand most of the possible answers. Some were much too cryptic for me!

 

It's great that McLaren make an effort to inject this sort of humour (Tooned etc.) into an otherwise sterile sport

 

How many different drivers have they had over the years anyway?

Indeed, it's almost as if Ron wrote these questions himself.

[PayasYouRace]

Martin Brundle, according to his twitter, got Jenson Button. He then asked why he didn't get himself.

[SophieB]

Fun! I presume there's only 6 Macca drivers in there? So, JB, Prost, Fittipaldi, Senna, Hunt, McLaren... anyone get anyone else?
I was Prost but only because most of the questions were in the usual 'my answer would be nothing remotely like any of those options so just pick one...' style thing.

Mind you, I don't deny there's some hair similarities between me and The Professor, so maybe the quiz is wiser than I give it credit for.

[Nobody]

The Professor for me too

[Radion]

Button. 

Funny description as well:

 

 

 

Wow, you’re a smooth one – and you make everything in life just seem effortless. Thing is, how much longer do you want to stay behind the wheel – a second career as a triathlete surely beckons?

Ok, I just took this test: http://www.mclaren.c...driver-are-you/ on the McLaren page and I got Jenson Button. I really don't know what to make of it. 

 

Which McLaren Driver are you?

That is a bizarre thing to put there. 

[Jon83]

James Hunt.

[thiscocks]

Prost as well. But I suspect there aren't that many drivers in the results. I wonder if there's a specific combination to get the likes of Philippe Alliot?

Or Stephen South

[Bawdy]

Emerson Fittipaldi for me.

[as65p]

It's all pretty damn too obvious to be funny. With very little thinking one can easily pick the answers to become the driver of choice.

[george1981]

Anyone get Gilles or Mansell?

I think that no one will get Mansell. I did not see a question relating to being too fat to fit into the car.

[sopa]

Wait... Nobody got Hakkinen? 

[sopa]

Ok, I got Prost.

 

Shame it seems there are only 6 options. So the likes of Hakkinen are not included.

 

Funny that they mention 70s sunglasses in multiple questions.

[garagetinkerer]

I think that no one will get Mansell. I did not see a question relating to being too fat to fit into the car.

Are you sure there was nothing related to golf, or whinging?

"Going around Becketts, the crowd gave me 2 tenths to put in my pocket, I had a number 1 drivers contract in my team, and everything was going my way. Then I saw someone in the crowd who looked like Alain Prost, ruined my day" 

[BlackCat]

Hunt - of course.

[TomNokoe]

Jenson. Does this mean I have to like him

[MP422]

Somehow I wanted to end up as Hamilton, so I've chosen all that religious stuff and now I'm Senna.

 

Guess that's kind of Hamilton too... right?

 

You could literally see the drivers in the questions....

 

who would pick doing a race in triathlon attire ?? 

[zepunishment]

''You are Fernando Alonso - funny, articulate debonaire... please call us on the following number ___________''

[sulgpallur]

Alain Prost

[InSearchOfThe]

Emmo for me aswell.

 

If I couldn't be Senna I'd choose Emerson. Class act.

[loki0420]

Fun! I presume there's only 6 Macca drivers in there? So, JB, Prost, Fittipaldi, Senna, Hunt, McLaren... anyone get anyone else?
 

I'm pretty sure it's the only drivers available. Same as the number of options per question. Also it could be said by the cars list.

[SKL]

I got the "professor"  and am happy with that!

 

 

(sure I could have fudged it and gotten Hunt...)

Edited by SKL, 28 August 2014 - 18:12.

[Radoye]

Prost.

[blub]

First answer was Button, was stunned!
Changed last answer from bike on a desert Island to manual on building a raft and motor, got Prost, Hurray!
I think the last answer is the decider.

[Skinnyguy]

Jenson. Cycling answers and smooth driving got me there I think.

[PARAZAR]

That is a bizarre thing to put there. 

Right? That's why I actually posted it. Thing is, how much longer do you want to stay behind the wheel – a second career as a triathlete surely beckons?

[David M. Kane]

I got Jenson Button too Martin?

[pdac]

Prost

[Currahee]

Prost.

 

Wasn't expecting that.

[August]

Prost.

 

Never thought I'm the professor in racing sims. 

[OvDrone]

[KnucklesAgain]

I got Bruce McLaren. I tried to get Lauda, but he does not seem to be an option.

[Slartibartfast]

I got "the truck driver" 

[Risil]

I stopped after nine questions and went off to make better use of my evening. When I came back the quiz told me I was Lewis Hamilton.

Edited by Risil, 29 August 2014 - 23:46.

[MrPodium]

James Hunt. I'd have been dissapointed with any other answer, too.

[BRG]

I was surprised, but actually rather pleased, to get Emmo.  Which is cool 

[drag]

Alain Prost
