Below is the youtube link to Grand Prix: The killer years.

It's about grand prix in the 60 & 70's. An absolute must if you are a fan of motorsport. Serious good TV.

The men of those days were nuts, commited and the show is about that too. Balls of steel they had, especially when so many around them were dying.

Brilliant find Paul.

Absolutely heart retching to watch David Purley trying to save Roger Williamson.

 

[Neilo]

Excellent video, some nasty footage in it though but all very interesting.

I stopped watching F1 after Senna died

 

[GSBellew]

Nice find, saw it a few weeks ago on BBC, well worth watching for anyone who has not seen it yet.

 

[ShaunieVW]

Just watched it there, some very hard hitting scenes in there, Jim Clark's crash and the aftermath for one

David Purley, what an amazing man, Brilliant video and Im going to try to get my hands on a DVD of it.

 

[Darragh B]

Top class video, how the guys raced is beyond me.

Couldnt have put it better myself!!

Does anyone know of a dvd(s) that cover the history of F1 up untill the 90's or further??

Thanks for posting that Plane. The Purley bit at the end was emotion very rarely seen.

As boring as F1 is today, we have them to thank for the technology that goes into saving lives in a lot of modern day road cars.

bookmarked for later

good film

 

[vagblood88]

Brilliant documentary, really amazing the developements from then too now!

 

[Micksheen]

Brilliant documentary. Stewart taping a spanner to his wheel to free himself if the need arose..
The David Purley bit was fairly horrific, puts the danger they faced in perspective.

 

[kvw]

good find Paul.

looking forward to the Senna movie now too.
