European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - August 20, 1986, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Wednesday August 20, 1986 the stars and stripes. Page 25 racing Roundup proof closing in on Stewart s record while Alain frosts 1 00th grand prix in Hungary proved to be a bust his Luis race ism sunday in Austria went the opposite Way Prosl scor ing his third Victory or the season and the 24th of his career. Ii was the defending Champion s first win since May 1 1 in Monaco Ana it made the run for the world driving championship even closer. Englishman Nigel Mansell of the Williams Honda team still leads for the Crown but Ever so slightly with 55 Points to Frost s s3. Ayrton Senna of Brazil Lotus Renault follows with 48 Points while his countryman Nelson Piquet is next with 47 Points. Piquet is Mansill s Williams Honda teammate. So. With four races to go any one of these tour Drivers can win this year s championship. Along with defending his title the Frenchman Prost who drives for inc Mclaren tag porsche team has the added incentive of chasing Jackie Stewart s All time record of 27 grand prix victories. Right now Prost is tied for fourth place in All time victories trailing Stewart the late Jim Clark of Scot land and the austrian Niki Lauda each with 25 wins. Prosl is tied with Juan Manuel Fangio of Argentina. Scotland s Stewart retired at the end of the 1973 season alter winning his third world Crown scoring five victories that year and establishing the record at 27, a record thai Lauda challenged but failed to beat. Stewart competed in 99 grand prix races. Prost will probably not tic Stewart s record this season but he s almost certain to tie it and pass in next year if he remains in racing. Frost has said publicly that he May Lake the 1987 season off a sabbatical of sorts simply to get a Good rest an then return for the 1 988 Campaign. He s also consid ering a move to Ferrari but he May remain with Mclaren next season. At inc moment the French Man is simply pondering his future and nothing is definite. Everything definite at Williams Honda however with the englishman Mansill signing a two year contract last week. So it will again be a Piquet Man sell setup there for 1 987. We noted last week that the hungarian grand prix proved a total loss for Mclaren an another Success for Williams Honda. It was a reverse situation in sunday s austrian round on the extremely fast Cosler Riching. With Williams Honda Drivers Mansill and Piquet Piquet seeking his third straight Victory dropping out with mechanical prob lems and the Mclaren cars finishing first and ninth. The Mcnelton Bow cars finally showed some sparkle Teo Fabi of Italy on pole Fabi also had a surprising pole position in last year s German grand Erik on the nuer Burgering and the extremely prom Ising austrian Driver Gerhard Burger qualifying Sec Ond fastest in his Home grand prix in the race Burger led then had to pit with ignition problems losing four laps and finishing seventh. By meanwhile dropped out. Regarding the Benetton team it s rumoured that makes sense As the United slates Wisest Market the firm Sells men s and women s apparel in formula one racing Benetton is out to win and unless the Tram can make a   it ivs engines for 1987, there is no Point in us continuing with formula one racing. The logical step would be a move to cart with Fabi driving. Fabi ii no stranger to cart having won pole position in he 1983 Indianapolis 500 and leading that race until his engine failed at inc one third Mark. The Benetton indy car Rumor is an interesting one indeed.
