Allen,
Re. the -9 Hotz car, I too suspect it was a customer car. As no such customer appeared in F2, I would assume it was only used on the Swiss hills. Maybe it had an accident early in its career? |

The Dickson car owned 2001 by Bengt Ernryd [Sweden] but now sold I believe.
If all these numbers 1-10 are allocated in Europe what was Masahiro Hasemi's car that debuted in Japan in March 77? Chris |

Did Hasemi have a 772? I have him in a Kojima early 1977 and then a Chevron B40 later in the year. My data's from the JAF site.
Had a quick look at F1R and they have Hasemi as a DNA at Suzuka 6 Mar 1977 with a 772. I can't see it again in their book nor on Formula2.net. As it was only a DNA, maybe it never existed. Allen |

A fresh March 772 summary. Lawrence's book says eight were built but Adam has revealed another two built from parts.
772-1 Pierre Maublanc French & European hillclimbs and F2 1977 [F1R] ... 772-2 Maublanc for Pierre Bardinon F2 (2 races only) 1977 [F1R] ... 772-3 Norman Dickson G8 and F2 1977 [MN] - Jimmy Jack 1978 [AF] ... 772-4 Angeliri (Euroracing) for Gaudenzia Mantova F2 1977 (retubbed on monocoque 772-14 after Hockenheim and wore plate '762-6') [AF] ... 772-5 Euroracing/March for Giacomelli & Ribeiro F2 1977 [MN] - Sergio Minotti F2 1978 [F1R] ... this plate now on a ex-Riley 77B 772-6 Euroracing/March for Riccardo Zunino F2 1977 [MN] - Ted Williams hills and sprints 1978-79 [AF] ... 772-7 Euroracing for Pesenti-Rossi & Ghinzani F2 1977 [F1R] ... 772-8 Euroracing for Alberto Colombo F2 1977 [MN] ... 772-9 Built from 762-U1 - Markus Hotz for customer May 1977 ... 772-10 Built using several second hand components. To David Franklin Jan 1978 - Alan Richards 1979-80 ... John Meredith 1982 [AS 8 Apr 1982 p46] ... 1977 - 772s in French hillclimbs I was somewhat confused by the number of 772s that appear on the French hills before Hotz' car is delivered in May but my vast Eschappement collection explains some of this. The season starts: Valflaunes 20 Mar 1977 - no 772s (Lapierre in a 762 + 1 742) Ampus 27 Mar 1977 - Maublanc 1st (Pozet in a 762 + 2 752s and a 742) Baglos-Sabran 27 Mar 1977 - no 772s (+ 1 742) Cagnotte 3 Apr 1977 - no 772s (Mamers and Lateste in 762s + 1 742) Hebecrevon 3 Apr 1977 - Maublanc 2nd (+ 2 742s and one other March) Chanas 11 Apr 1977 - no 772s (Pozet in a 762) Tonnerre 17 Apr 1977 - Mamers 2nd, Maublanc 4th, Lapierre 6th (Pozet in a 762 + 3 752s and a 742) However, Escappement (May 1977 p132) says of the Tonnerre event: Quote:
Marc Pozet is in the ex-Mieusset 762 by the way. 1978 - 772s in F2 Apart from Minotti's '772-5' [F1R], OASC Racing Team had a '772' for Jerich, Mantova had one at Vallelunga and even at Donington, and a guy called Henning Hagenbauer had one at Hockenheim. A reference in F1R to Dickson in 772-3 is wrong of course - that was his 772P. Other '772's Ted Dzierzek in 1981 and Rodney Eyles in 1985. Anyone got anything to add? Allen |

Another update:

Advertised as "March 772 rolling chassis inc FGA gearbox Pilbeam modified David Franklin 1978 championship car ... Rodney Eyles Wellington". |

Lawson bought it back from this man some time around May 1981 (my estimate) part-exchanging his recently-purchased ex-Hunter March 80A. The 772 now had a Hart engine and Lawson then shared it with Ted Dzierzek through the rest of 1981. Steve, Ted - remember anyone in Gloucestershire matching that description? Wasn't you was it Ted |

So the Stuart Lawson car was 772#3, now believed to have gone to Sweden and now driven by Christian Fischer in Euro F2 and now with BMW engine again.

That is 772-3.I think that the "man with castle in gloucestershire" might be a "red herring" ps Allen I live in an old pub. pps I owned a 722.

Tony Brown's castle is bigger than yours, even if he doesn't have a full-sized ballroom.

Pumps and barrels taken away in 1939. The dance hall was last used in the 60s when my late father ran the local jazz club. All this very off topic !!!!!!!

Thought you might be interested to know that 772-3 has returned to Gloucestershire once again where it is being restored to race next year
