As Yahia needed to know the nationalities of our members for one of his projects, this prompted me to put the final touch to a little .doc file I had started a while ago. It is available for download
here.
A few stats from this table :
NationalitiesTo this day, the
176 registered HSO drivers come from
25 nations. A nice figure imho.
Here is the detail per nation :
95 France
13 United Kingdom
10 Belgium, Spain, USA
5 Portugal
4 Germany, Russia
3 Poland, Sweden
2 Argentina, Australia, Canada, Liechtenstein, Turkey
1 Austria, Brazil, Estonia, Finland, Netherlands, Norway, Philippines, Romania, Switzerland
AgeWe all are a rather old bunch, as the average year of birth is
1972, making the average HSO driver a
37 year young simracer
.
Our youngest member is French GPLer Rémy Lampuré, who will be
16 years old later this year (born 1993 November 3).
Our veteran is the unlucky Indy 500 contestant Jean-Claude Joly (
68 years old, born 1941 March 19).
Here is the split by decades :
Born in the 1990s 8 drivers
Born in the 1980s 47 drivers
Born in the 1970s 44 drivers
Born in the 1960s 50 drivers
Born in the 1950s 21 drivers
Born in the 1940s 4 drivers
note : I lack the birthdates of the shy
Thierry Marchand and one Stéphane Derboven, who never posted on the forum anyway (let alone race in one of our events).
