    1. This car is from the 1995 season
    2. FW17 (although on the poster in the background the number looks more like a 14 )
    3. Michael Schumacher and Benetton won the titles respectively
    4. They used a Renault 3.0 V10 engine
    5. Adrian Newey
    6. The Williams team saw their cars retire 15 times over the season

    I hate to break this to you, but you're wrong. However, Adrian Newey did create the car (Question 5).

    This time they are all correct. I forgot to check number 4, so yes, you were right.
