ESPN Classic

Possibly the most horrific looking accident I've ever witnessed.  Amazing looking at that footage to see how vulnerable they all look - didn't seem that way at all at the time.  Yeah, Old Git, I remember when too... I have a photograph of John Surtees, taken on an old Instamatic camera (remember those) walking within a couple of feet of me, carrying a victory bottle of fizz.  There's is nobody round him. How things have changed - and not always for the better.

Its been a while on this thread but, a friend in the UK recently sent me a DVD of the ESPN Classic, 1973 British GP.  Watched it last night and it almost made me weep, good grief those were glorious days.  The sight of of the pack (Mad Ronald, JYS, Revvie, The Bear, etc.) drifting through Woodcote, Stowe, Club, etc., is just mind-melting.  Silverstone was really a man's circuit back then.
