Just think about this for a moment. This is a monarch honoring a republic by ordering the playing of the republic’s anthem without any official representative of the republic in attendance. Shows the gravity of the situation and the friendship between the US and the UK
5 títulos mundiales en 4 marcas diferentes, casi un 50 % de efectividad en F1 (ganó una de cada dos carreras) subido a una salchicha con ruedas que iba a 300 km/h y donde lo único que sobresalía era la cabeza del piloto sólo agarrado del volante con un casquito de media cabeza y una antiparra en los ojos. Les pregunto a todos los que leen los comentarios: Donde está la cabra? Sin dudas J. M. Fangio es el mejor de todos los tiempos.
9/11 was a big deal... Those not born yet and those that are too young to comprehend that day don't really know. It was a MAJOR event in modern times. Thank you, England, for standing by us in those times. RIP to all who perished.
I don't know what is so heartwarming in a way to see a country that is an entire ocean away from the United States, being so effected by 9/11 that the people in the crowd have tears in their eyes, but it is.
I love this Because Big Brother (England) giving Lil Bro(USA) a shoulder....Ya become besties again cause you realize there's assholes out there that hate the 2 of ya....Brothers fight.... They did....They do And Now Lil Bro won't let anyone &^%$ w you....."Whose car we gonna take?"
I was there watching the race in 1957. It was a truly historic performance by Fangio. His driving was always very smooth and in total control of the car. I graduated from Frankfurt American High School in 1957 and left for the US slightly after this.
And they had their hands on their hearts. So much respect for rhe late queen and the people of The UK. The emotions you can see from the crowd......we stand as one.
This is the year holden and ford can win since they destroyed what made Australian racing. Corruption. What made Bathurst so good was all the different every day models you could buy and seeing them racing..
Imagine if you were an American traveling to London before/during 9/11 and for several days you are stranded from getting into the United States and then you hear this played in front of Buckingham Palace. I would be breaking down right then and there. I was 13 years old on 9/11. Thank you to the United Kingdom and her late Majesty.
As an American this is so moving to know that other countries stood with us in our time of tragedy. I hope everyone in the UK knows that the passing of the queen was felt equally by us as well.
Just as a wee bit of added perspective on this. On 11th September, there were thousands of American tourists in London, as there often are. You can imagine being so far from home when something like that happened. There were dozens of Americans in the crowd outside
I posted long time ago and watching this again ? To all my England peeps across the pond just know the US will always have your backs , and thank for the good music and Jim Marshall ( he created Marshall Amps ) ❤
