Grand Prix (1966) - Spa Francorchamps in HD 

And Le Mans 1971

Grand Prix (1966), Le Mans (1971), No Man's Land (1987), Cars 2 (2011), Rush (2013) and Ford v Ferrari (2019) they all throw shit at Ferrari. I don't know why Hollywood really hates Ferrari

And "The Thomas Crown Affair".

My guess would be is that Ferrari has been King-Of-The-Hill long before the F1 format was established in 1950. Closing in on a century mark of remaining competive in professional racing is one thing, performing that in GP and WEC racing is quite another. Hence as it's been expressed time and again, everyone tries to knock down The King-Of-The-Hill. Another factor contributing to Ferrari as "The Villian" in cinema is that Enzo himself was notorious for his stubbornness with his engineers and dubious regards towards his drivers. Enzo's politics nearly cost him his existence in F1 racing during the early 1960s when his constant disruptions resulted in _"The Great Walkout."_ I admire Ferrari's longevity of remaining in the sport, but I'm no fan of the man nor the team. So I'm guilty as charged of being one of his critics. Though I do slightly, ever so slightly cut Enzo himself some slack because he was unnecessarily distracted by two goddamned women who inevitably drove him barking mad - his wife & mother.

After last week's Monaco GP, I find throwing manure at Ferrari justified. Lol

Agree, but Ferrari since Todt left has been laughable

The last time Ferrari won a championship was Raikkonen in 2007

That's my point, they've been unreliable since day one. If they ever won it was the driver, never the car.

@@mrfashionguy12002 and 2004 would CERTAINLY beg to differ lol

​@@mrfashionguy1The driver? Knowing Ferrari - it was most likely cheating.

Watch it at 6:00 and you get to see Phil Hill in a camera-weighted GT40 dodging cars and haybales behind Dan Gurney, then flying past him. That amazing pass from the helicopter shot was John Surtees passing Richie Ginther.

Looks more like a practice session and the other car just lifted off...

And no seatbelts (the thought was that getting ejected would be more survivable). Glad that safety standards improved.

The fact that a James Garner did his own driving also pissed off his then next door neighbour - Steve McQueen - who thought that he should've been in this movie.

​@@bradwilliams1691 Yeah, heh heh, there's a YT video of Garner's reference of that during an interview.

a lots of things should not have been axed but they were... it seems to me F1 is heading down into a commercial vision and the only thing they seem to care about is how to put more money in the pocket of the shareholders, it cant end well.

Spa has been ruined, just a kart track now.

@@ericacarradus9152you do know that the drivers are the ones that wanted this track changed right?

​@@ericacarradus9152Get with the times old man, it was dangerous, cool track but dangerous

​@@deadripppVery true, they are only pleasing the corporates and the celebrities, not the fan

iirc it was mclaren with gt40 engine, i guess releasing actual gt40 into actual race could be to dangerous even by 60s standarts

@@ShitHappensRLY Interesting. I know there are photos floating around of a GT40 with the bodywork removed and cameras mounted everywhere, but they may have only used that for the staged F3 races.

I think the "camera car" was actually a McLaren M2B

I’m pretty sure the GT40 was used to film Le Mans in 1971 and not this. Would make sense seeing as the GT40 would be brand new in 1966

@@RobertGShipley It was a M3A (chassis M3A/3, to be exact). Hill entered the race on his own to get the footage, you can see the camera car on the back of the grid at the start. The producers must be lucky that Hill didn't crash on the first lap and got the footage intact seeing that half of the field crashed out due to the unexpected rainstorm there...

I thought of that haha

Why didn't anyone attend the dead body?

That must have happened to JS outside of F1 racing, or before he entered F1 (F3?... WSC?...), as I don't recall him mentioning that with regards to his tenure of GP racing. I know Jim Clark experienced that when Chris Bristow's body was momentarily laying on the road during the 1960 Belgian GP.

​@@Panzer_Runner They did, but it took time for anyone to get there since Spa was a relatively long circuit in those days. Stewart's dreadful accident in this race was immediately attended to by Graham Hill and a local farmer since there were no track marshals nearby to extract him from the car.

Can’t blame a circuit for its own issues. Old Spa was in every way a fast circuit but it was one run on a public road during a time where street circuits weren’t safe. If a circuit like this were run now it would very much be as safe as any street circuit by the standards of our day, just much longer.

Monza has a greater haunting history; two mass casualties events that included spectators - not to mention the losses of (Richard) Seaman, both father & son of the Ascari family, von Trips, Rindt and Peterson.

That’s called honor. Back then they died every week, so they didn’t want to put themselves, their fellow racer nor fans into a compromising position. My opinion it’s the most beautiful thing that can happen in those conditions.

They're also being lapped.

Last thing you want to happen as a racing driver is to die in a crash while driving in a movie about your exploits in the faster cars.

Dirty driving wasn't common then, as it was since 1988 - when safety designs and components of the cars that were made to increase surviving an accident. Guisippe Farina and Innes Ireland are about the only boneheads who got stupid behind the wheel in the 1950s & 1960s.

You're welcome

Watched it great movie,thanks again.

No.

And Grand Prix Legends, modders even built a more accurate version of the course of 8 years! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e0ykJgs02nQ.html

The only thing stopping you from cutting a corner was either a building, people, or the terrain

Wdym which movie? It's in the title

@@Panzer_Runner ow i dont know, seen this scene first tym. thnku btw

Safe? They were aware of the danger and were willing to die to be famous Or they just like racing and ignored all the risks

One death or more was expected at every Grand Prix. The cars were death Traps and some poor devils burned to death in the car. The sport has a lot to thank Sir Jackie Stewart for, for making it much safer.

@@allanm6246 Oddly enough it was this race that inspired Stewart on his crusade for safety in the sport. Quite understandably considering how close he could have been dead in this event. In another odd twist of the sport was that Stewart was somewhat criticized for his pursuit of safety by Jacky Ickx. Yet in 1969 at Le Mans, Ickx staged a safety protest of his own when he objected to the traditional starting procedures of drivers running across the circuit to their cars - when he simply walked across the track while the other competitors ran to their cars (there's footage of this btw). Amazingly enough, Ickx (and Jackie Oliver) won that event by a scant 100yds in front of the 2nd place Porsche of Hans Herman/Gerrard Larrousse.

@@allanm6246 As much as the sport is indebted towards Sir Jackie Stewart towards the deeds that improved safety, he is the most cursed driver to see all his fellow drivers, teammates either getting injured seriously or death in worse situations. Imagine the agony he has to go through all these years with so much haunting memories especially his most loved teammate François Cevert's tragic death!!

@@Panzer_Runner Ok it's a movie, but the circumstances are real. Racing cars that at 300 km / h skim over trees, houses, electric poles and milesyones, with people on the track, were all real things. Maximum security.
