Name a Formula One driver, (active in the 21st century), who scored World Championship points in his first two races, for different teams, in different seasons.
I think you misunderstood the question. The comma after 'races' is important.
Lewis Hamilton scored World Championship points in his first fifteen Formula One races, (2007), but all of those races were for Vodafone McLaren Mercedes.
Ollie Bearman finished 7th in a Ferrari at the 2023 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and 10th for Haas at the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix in his only two F1 starts to date. Bearman is the reserve driver by both teams.
Nope.

Among all Major League Baseball Managers of the post 1900 Modern Era with a minimum of 162 wins, former Toronto Blue Jays managers Carlos Tosca and Charlie Montoyo achieved a feat which no other Manager has done.
What is it?
Tosca, (191-191), and Montoyo, (236-236), each won exactly half of the games they managed. Several other Managers had career winning percentages that rounded to .500, with one extra win or loss.
List of Major League Managers - sort the results by any column.

In the history of the NCAA only 3 Canadians have received first place votes for the Heisman trophy. Name any or all of them.
1. Tony Mandarich(correctly answered by onomatopoeia). That was 1988, and I think he received the most first place votes of any Canadian, ever.
See post #5242 for the complete answer.
