Tourers - Adelaide 85

Did Gerhard Berger, who was racing in F1 for Arrows and BMW in the ETC at the time in 1985, really race the Bob Jane T-Marts ex-Schnitzer BMW 635csi at the Adelaide Grand Prix Touring Car Support Races in 1985, in the car Ravaglia and Cecotto raced to second in the 85 JH 100.

No because Beger won the F1 gp for FERRARI or was it BENETTON in that year at SA to my reckoning but I could be wrong

Berger won the AGP for Ferrari in 1987 in his first season with the team, and raced for Benetton in 1986 and for Arrows-BMW in 1985

To actually answer the question originally asked...yes, he did race a BMW 635CSi in touring car support races in 1985.

That certainly was Berger in the BMW, and if I remember correctly, John Harvey taught him a lesson entering the first chicane :)

sorry my mistake:o :o :o

why was he racing in the race. i know he was a BMW contracted Touring Car driver, but he was also racing an Arrows that weekend. How did he do in qualifying and the race.
