Remember seeing Lotus F1 testing there early 80’s, D’Angelas (if I spelt that correctly). Stood in the pits right next to him in the car, but I didn’t tap him on the helmet…

Aston Martin were also there with their Le Mans candidate. Was it the nimrod? It has to be the loudest car I have ever heard. My bones shook as it drove past me.

Can’t imagine they will let you just wander into the pits nowadays.

27 Was Gilles Villeneuve
28 Was Michele Alboreto

So it's tracking down the car from there from the late 80's

From Googling the SCM Advertising on the wing I have deduced its a Minardi.

Further deduction has narrowed it down to possibly Gianni Morbidelli

You’re almost a decade out. Villeneuve died in ‘82.
But yes it is a Minardi.99944
