I know the answer !!!

 

Bonjour Roger Bambuck. He's a French sprinter who had the world  100 m record during a few minutes in the 60s.

Mennea was an Italian 200 m world holder and Borzov a Soviet Olympic champion.

 

And the right answer is the Australian Peter Norman. Answer B !

All I'm saying to you is that you will lose 93,000 is you have an incorrect memory. We have seen mrv86 lose that.

 

B is final?

[toulousain 35]

I understand the risk and yes, B is my final answer.

[Quasit 955]

Phew.
