              *-These two Andrea Moda drivers were entered for the  first 
                two races of the season but never drove as the car failed 
                to pass a weigh-in.
        
        
        Extra Cars: (* indicates default)
                                                                 
        BENB191B.BMP   High nose.  Run from SAF to BRA.
                       Virtually identical to John Barnard's 1991 design,
                       the  B191B remained competitive and was driven  by
                       Michael  Schumacher towards his first  two  podium 
                       finishes.
        BENB192.BMP*   High nose.  Run from SPA to AUS.
                       Designed  with inputs from Rory Byrne, Frank  Der-
                       nie,  and Ross Brawn, the B192 predicted the  look 
                       of  F1 in future seasons.  The B192 is the  great-
                       grandfather  of  the 1998 Benetton and  Prost,  as 
                       well as the '94 Pacific.
        
        BRABT60.BMP    Low nose.  Run from SAF to BRA.
                       Best  known as the last F1 car to be driven  by  a 
                       woman,  the BT60 was, but for a superb  effort  by 
                       Eric van de Poele, an unqualified success.
        BRABT60B.BMP   Low nose.  Run from CAN to HUN.
                       A  Japanese rock band called Seikima-II  began  an 
                       effort  in  mid-1992  to  save  the   financially-
                       stricken  Brabham  team.   However,  even  with  a 
                       bright  new livery and wings on Hissing  Sid,  Sir 
                       Jack's once-great team went the way of the dodo.
        
        FONGR01.BMP    Low nose.  Run from SAF to MON.
                       Based on a design first run by Osella in 1990, the 
                       GR01  was  outdated and unreliable yet  was  often 
                       qualified well by Gabriele Tarquini.
        FONGR02.BMP*   Low nose.  Run from CAN to AUS.
                       Designed  by  ex-Brabham man Sergio  Rinland,  the 
                       GR02  was to have represented a turning  point  in 
                       Fondmetal's fortunes.  It did not, and did  little 
                       to improve the pace of the drivers.
        
        LOT102D.BMP    Low nose.  Run from SAF to SPA.
                       The  Lotus 102D was a development of the  previous 
                       season's  Judd-powered 102B.  Visually a  dinosaur 
                       in design terms, Johnny Herbert drove it  surpris-
                       ingly well in the first two races.
        LOT107.BMP.*   Low nose.  Run from RSM to AUS.
                       After a disastrous introduction in San Marino, the 
                       Lotus  107  gradually gained speed as  the  season 
                       progressed.   It was the only other  actively-sus-
                       pended  car  on  the grid and would  be  the  last 
                       original design to come out of Team Lotus. 
        
        MCLMP46B.BMP   Low nose.  Run from SAF to MEX.
                       A  minor development of the  title-winning  MP4/6, 
                       the  "B"  variant  brought into  service  when  it 
                       became  clear that McLaren's '92 challenger  would 
                       be late in coming.
        MCLMP47.BMP*   Low nose.  Run from BRA to AUS.
                       Introduced in Senna's home race, the MP4/7 was one 
                       of the great disappointments of 1992.  Hopes  that 
                       the new McLaren would at least match the Williams'
                       pace  were  dashed as soon as the  first  laptimes 
                       were  set.  Technically advanced in some  respects 
                       (fly-by-wire throttle, but passive suspension), in 
                       1992  the MP4/7 was an unreliable machine of  sec-
                       ond-rate speed.
        
        MODA.BMP       Low nose.  Run in MON.
                       The  slowest  car of 1992 fielded by  the  poorest 
                       team on the grid.  
        
        IMPORTANT NOTE: Before changing the default cars or drivers, make 
        sure that a backup has been made of the car or driver you  intend 
        to replace.  
        
        Numbers for extra cars and drivers:
        
        Andrea Moda:   655/655/32767 bhp.*
        Brabham:       685/695/0 bhp.**
        P. McCarthy:   9187/9187/0
        E. Bertaggia:  ???/???/???
        A. Caffi:      ???/???/???
        
                  *-The only time it qualified, it lasted less than 50km.
                 **-Every time it qualified, it finished.
