Turn the volume up to 11 to really feel it! Hate to say it but watching this reminds me of why I no longer bother with the uncompetitive media circus that's today's F1. Once upon a time F1 was an enthusiast's sport but since Bernie drove it into a global money-making machine, and then Liberty Media turned it into a reality show I just can't be bothered. No disrespect to the teams & drivers but the current F1 owners have absolutely ruined the purity of F1 sport IMHO. Thanks Louis for sharing this recreation of the glory days of F1.
Is the video retouched or edited with better quality?
Well, it may be a re-creation but that overtaking at the start was pretty vintage Hunt.
I'll betcha that if you got all the current F1 lot together and asked them to choose, they'd dump their current rides for these things.
Amazing
MAKE MODERN SAFE VERSIONS OF THESE CARS USING MODERN SYNTHETIC ZERO CARBON FUELS AND LETS STOP THE RIDICULOUS EXCUSES FOR CARS THEY DRIVE THESE DAYS.
ITS BORING AF!
While this footage is utterly beautiful, a lap around Monaco is so frustrating … Like a wank that never really gets going.
The SOUND @StoneMountain64
This shit seems way harder than what they say
Videonun gerçek olmadığını bir turun 1 dakika 48 saniye gibi uzun bir sürede tamamlanmasından anlayabilirsiniz. 1974'te bu pistteki tur rekoru yaklaşık olarak 1 dakika 28 saniye idi (Ronnie Peterson) ve 3.33 kilometre uzunluğundaki bir pist için 20 saniyelik pol süresi farkı mümkün görünmüyor.
where was the camera placed
The sounds, I can feel it in my bones! 🏎💨
sigh Back to the deadly seasons era
Senna & the rest…it's like they all had a special feel for those machines…crazy talent…back then with no kind of safety…no abs & traction control…wild era.
Che cazzo ne sapete voi di James Hunt, ma soprattutto, di Mario Poltronieri e del fido Zermiani dai box
Wow! 😱🌋🎶🎶🎶
Crazy how high you were up in the cockpit back then
Who is driving that Hesketh???
Helly sound of that Hesketh…
oh my god that sound so beautiful. an old f1 engine.
This is what F1 racing was and will never be again
