The same Eddie Irvine who said he painted his helmet orange because he was Protestant, and added green stripes so that the IRA wouldn't shoot him?
"British" refers to anyone from the UK, in a wider context it can refer to the British Isles. All Scots are British, not all British are Scots."An emphasis was placed on drivers with road racing backgrounds which meant drivers from open wheel, oval track racing were at a disadvantage.
