While attending the 1986 Mexican F1 Grand Prix at the Autodromo Hermans Rodriguez, I was walking down pit lane and there was James Hunt sitting down on the pit wall with Murray Walker smoking a cigarette barefooted.......😀 He gladly gave me his time to talk. He is hands down, the coolest, most laid back and friendly F1 champion I ever had the privilege to meet.

A most unusual interview. Wigmore seems almost to want to ask whether Hunt is surprised he is still alive. I may be wrong, but this sounds like a slightly creepy fellow who is a stranger to danger and risk trying to get some sort of vicarious buzz out of a sensation that is quite alien to him. One way or another, Hunt comes across as clever and insightful and the interviewer does not.

1:45 The-"Graham Hill situation"... What exactly was the -"Graham Hill situation"?! Hill, contrary to Hunt himself, was one of the most accomplished racing drivers in history, and most likely the only driver, ever in history to win the "quadruple crown", that is, The F1 title (twice), Monte Carlo (5 times) the Indy 500, and the 24 hours of Le Mans. Hill, besides being having more longevity than any F1 driver in history, at a time racers died regularly, set up his own team, was a gentleman, was a highly articulated man, a charmant, and was a very special person whom James Hunt (o so lucky he was) should have demonstrated a lot more respect for.
@Kris9kris
@Kris9kris 5 ай бұрын
Hunt says nothing derogatory or underhanded there (quite the opposite): he's referring to the then unprecedented/unusual longevity Hill had as a racing driver. Even now, in the era of the Kimis and Alonsos, the man is still in 6th on the longest F1 careers list. He started at the end of the 50s and drove well into the 70s, even when he was saddled with having to endure shitboxes at the back of the grid in the latter stages of his career.

Hunt was a curious driver. If the car was good, he was very good. But if it needed work and development, he would lose interest. The accident - and subsequent death of Ronnie Peterson - which he was involved in, clearly affected him as he tried to get out of his Wolf contract for 1979 immediately afterwards, but Peter Warr insisted he stuck to it. He clearly got 'The Fear' and one you have that, you cannot be a racing driver. He was very enjoyable to listen to, though his factually incorrect diatribe against Riccardo Patrese soured what was a fascinating character.
