Note what appear to be amber fog lights and the extra lights on car #4. Also noteworthy, the 914s are /4s (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)
The "wee Scot" is in the foreground, can anyone determine the GP drivers in the other two 914s? Attached image(s) |

Are you sure of the year and race/track?
I can find out who the other drivers are but I need more to go on. |

After enlarging the original pic, I see that the sign on the door of Jackie Stewart's 914 reads "Circuit Paul Richard".

I'm thinking the color of the cars represent the country of the drivers. BRG for Stawart, white is Japan (can't be right) and red, Italy.

Definitely Regazzoni in the white car. Looks like it could by Ickx in the red car - but why does IT have hubcaps on it?
