Woo. No.60 already.
Q60. What circuit was the cancelled race of 1939 due to run on? Q61. At what race of 1938 did post-war motoring magazine publisher, Paul Pietsch, create a sensation, and why? |

I'm very intrigued about the answer of Q61, but have no idea myself. So I wait a bit ...

Q60: Bucaresti, Romania, but the war was faster ....
Q61: Also don't know, but believe it has nothing to do with racing, or? Paul Pietsch was an excellent driver, but he never had the cars to be a winner. Although I remember, in 1938 he tried an Auto-Union ... |

Eee... err ... umm ... was there two cancelled races of 1939? I'm talking about the one cancelled because of the imminent start of war.
Supposedly Paul Pietsch did something in a race in 1938 which surprised the established racing community. |

Q60: Bucaresti was in my memory, I now checked in detail, there are even more races cancelled.
GP Italy, British GP Donington, and Zürich GP at Switzerland. Last GP was at Beograd, Yugoslavia, on September 3, and 2 days before WWII started. |

There was no race after Beograd due to WWII. I only know that these 4 races had been scheduled but never held, but I do not know the originally scheduled dates.

So what was the next (evidently cancelled) race after Yugo? That would possibly be the answer to my question...
