Eh up, lad. That's not what I've got.
Anyone else care to answer? This trivia is more like a discussion than answering a few questions... |

Fushida was a non-starter in 1975, so he actually didn't compete.
The first Japanese driver to participate in a Grand Prix in a Japanese car was Masahiro Hasemi. He drove a Kojima-Ford Cosworth KE007 during the Japanese GP of 1976. It was the onliest GP he competed in, but he did set the fastest lap. |

Wasn't it Jenson Button who won it?
Although I don't know if that's unique. |

Gerard, very topical but I'm afraid incorrect.
Answer : It was started with a Union Jack as the drivers couldn't see the lights because of the sun. |
