Last one from me for this year.

For one point, please respond and identify car and driver.

Richard-Brasier is correct, but it is another driver. Locked for you.

The marque was already established, the time span is right.

It's Gustave Caillois on his Richard-Brasier before the 1905 Gordon Bennett race. (I've just found the postcard which was sold on E-bay and replicated your post picture)
