When Österreichring still was a proper racing cirquit. Absolutely beautiful!

The original Österreichring 😍

To me this video showcases what I might perhaps call the height of effective beauty in cinematography. Look past the grainy video quality and washed out colors that come with it and one will find some extremely impressive camera work at play. In particular the way in which it manages to convey the gradient of the terrain, which is normally extremely difficult to do on camera without having to resort to showing footage of people falling over

thank god a vid with english commentary...

I sould have more STW footage from this era to upload - when I can find the tapes.....

Any surviving footage I have will be transferred to digital and uploaded as soon as I can.

To think,only 2 years after this,the wonderfull Osterreichring was butchered & turned into the A1-ring.Sad as it was a Simply brilliant race track!!
