I am looking for complete list of races and race winners of following series:

- British F3 (1988-89);
- British F3000 (1989);
- GM Vauxhall Lotus (1988);
- Touring Car World Cup (1995);
- British F1 (1969);
- Shellsport international F.Libre (1977).

Do you know where I can find results of Formula libre races? Will be very grateful for your help.

For some of those at least you might not be able to avoid using printed sources
If you tell us where you are we might be able to point you in the direction of libraries which have collections of Autosport etc

The sources for the F3 and F3000 results are my own records, which would have been taken from the relevant issue of Autosport at the time (so judge the accuracy for yourself!). I have the top three for each F3 race and the full finisher's list for F3000. The Touring Car World Cup results are in Peter Higham's International Motor Racing Guide published last year.

The British F1 series of 1969 has been discussed in another thread in the last few days. There seems to be some doubt about how "official" a title it was, though I haven't read that thread since yesterday morning, so the problem may have been resolved even as I write. Certainly, Higham lists a series sponsor, the sherry company Vat 69 - presumably they were sponsoring something tangible! The rounds would almost certainly have been the four Formula 1 races held in this country that year :

March 16th. Race of Champions, Brands Hatch
Jackie Stewart, Matra-Cosworth MS80

March 30th. International Trophy, Silverstone
Jack Brabham, Brabham-Cosworth BT26A

July 19th. R.A.C. British Grand Prix, Silverstone
Jackie Stewart, Matra-Cosworth MS80

August 16th. International Gold Cup, Oulton Park
Jacky Ickx, Brabham-Cosworth BT26A

'Fraid I can't help with GM Lotus or Formule Libre.

Many thanks for Alan Lewis and Andrew Fellowes - good job and good site!

Also I want to say thanks for fines's help. But I am looking for list of races of British GM Vauxhall Lotus championship in 1988. Unfotunately there are not any libraries which have collections of Autosport or others good magazines in my town.

So I wait for your help in race results of 1988 British GM Vauxhall Lotus championship.

Indeed he is, Jyrki Jarvilehto is his real name and was the one he used when he first began racing in the British junior formulae - he was Formula Ford Champion prior to progressing to F3 if I recall correctly.

At some point he became "J.J. Lehto" for much the same reasons Ayrton Senna da Silva became just Ayrton Senna - easier for the poor, confused Brits. Now, the question is, was he "JJ" by the time he raced in F3, or later? My records, which, as I mentioned, were written at the time, list "J. Jarvilehto" so he may not have changed by then...or I might just have been being a pedantic git, something we all enjoy every now and then.

I seem to remember that at the start of the 88 season, the on track commentators were still struggling with "Jyrki Jarvilehto" or just "Jarvilehto", but by the end of the season the now familiar "J J Lehto" was being used.

Some more question:

where I can find the results of 2h Le Mans race that held in 1975 (at least the winner)?
