I have a film about Fangio that Mercedes-Benz made many years ago. He
got his start racing on back roads in Argentina in a way that was
reminiscent of the American good old boys. I think the film is about
an hour in length, although I haven't watched it recently. It's on 3/4-
inch tape. One of these days I'm going to buy an old U-Matic and
convert it and some other tapes to DVD.

Jimmy Clark would be my favourite.
I admired Gilles Villeneuve's skill, but considered him to be
more than a little bit reckless - a danger not only to himself
but also to other competitors.

Make mine Senna, Frank, but I liked Gilles very much indeed.

The list is slow today, and I don't start OT threads often, but I
couldn't resist this one. I make a point of watching this every
couple of months, because it's about the best F1 racing you're ever
going to see and because Gilles is my all time fave. This is the
10
minute version, but it's worth watching because it's called by
Murray
Walker, who's always fun:

The real racing starts about the 5 minute mark. Enjoy.
Marnie, don't bother. You won't enjoy...

cheers,
