Pictured here in July 1976 at Oulton Park for the BP Formula 3 race is Aryon C.Filmo (back to camera, long hair). He was Bruno Giacomelli's partner in the works March F3 team that season. You can also see Bruno in the pic behind his March 763 Toyota. Who was Aryon, and what became of him?

Not "Filmo" but "Filho" (meaning "son" resp. "junior" I think).

Family name: Cornelsen.

You must mean Aryon Cornelsen Filho (1962). Filho means son or Jr. in portuguese. He lived in the UK in 1976 and participated in the Jim Russell school. Raced F3 in 1976 and 1977 on sponsorship from Caixa and his father (former president of FC Coritiba from Parana Brazil). Raced about 20 races with a 4th as best result. Wanted to reach F1.

The programme mis-spelt his name!!! However in the championship points table in the same programme, he is Cornelsen! :confused:

Cornelson may indicate his family has some Dutch roots. Son of Cornelis.

Obviously Aryon Cornelsen Filho died in April 2004 at the age of 50.
