A great quote by a great man

OH THE FORD GT40... SEXIEST CAR I EVER SAW... lol caps

By the way, all grand prix races and people in that movie are fictional. That means Jean Pierre's death never really happened or even existed. Although cameo appearances of REAL race car drivers at that time did make an appearance. Graham Hill for example. He was shown in that one scene where that one guy went crazy over alchohol after the race in... either Zandvoort or Spa.

It's true that the characters in the film are fictional and their racing scenes are staged, however, live footage of the actual races in the 1965 season was used in the racing action sequences. Graham Hill and Phil Hill had credited parts in the movie. Graham Hill has some spoken lines, at the post race party in Monaco and at the driver's meeting at Monza. Phil Hill also had some lines, at the Brands Hatch race, he exclaims when seeing that Pete Aron's car is leaking fuel and again when it catches fire. He also drove the GT40 chase car.

Larry A. Shurr Don't forget the cameo of Fangio!

Where's Fangio? I haven't found him yet.

Those were the days when men were also reckless and unsafe, boomer.

@@constipatedparker5879 It's called LIFE, Constipated - and Grand Prix racing isn't a 'safe space' sport. For your information, it was the promoters and circuit owners who were reckless by failing to enact (expensive) safety standards. The drivers were just trying to make a living. You can't be 'reckless' and drive a F1 car - you won't live long enough to become reckless. These men, and yes they were all men, were extremely capable and thanks to the likes of Jackie Stewart (et al) were instrumental in pushing for elevated safety standards. This boomer concludes by saying : KISS MY ASS! As hard as it may be for you to understand..... Those were indeed great days before subsequent generations fucked everything up. Take a look around.... I rest my case! ✌

@@jimw.4161 racing is supposed to be racing, not being incinerated and burned to a crisp alive while trapped inside of a magnesium and lead-fuel coffin because neither the sport you're racing for and the people managing your team cares for your safety as a driver. if the players of your sport need to put their lives not on the line, but straight inside the noose every time they play the sport, then maybe somethings wrong with it and needs to be examined and fixed. i'm not saying they weren't good drivers, by all means they were very good drivers and this goes same for the cars, the cars were very good for the time but this time is long gone and should never come back. (its not totally unsafe though, im sure the hay bales can stop a 250 km/h racing car from plowing into a crowd)

@@finnegan6464 F1 racing will never be a completely safe sport. However, as you say, safety standards have risen considerably since the 1960s - thanks largely to the efforts of drivers like Jackie Stewart. They were great machines and drivers for their day - but their day has long since passed. Thanks for the informative (and thoughtful) reply. 👍

@@jimw.4161 👍

Bikrant Neupane Exakty🏁😂😂 you derserve more like dude sirry i write with only a hand because my ither hand is broken

no shit sherlock

@fdmzoppp13 are you that dense

Realmente é espetacular o filme...

@@pderocoptero hoje tem os " the Movie " que a ACO faz das 24 de Le mans , pra quem não tem paciência de assistir a corrida toda , ele faz de forma cinematográfica em 45 minutos

I think they somehow edited it and stuff. Check out the zandvoort clip.

He misses a gear I believe before the tunnel. I listened too.. lol

@@BritIronRebel I heard the same...but things aren't always perfect.

it's still scary to drive as fast as you can on a track with other people pushing the limit as well.. luckily today it isn't always fatal

agree, much more dangerous that today

35mm cinema film was basically Kodachrome which is extremely fine grained with a wide dynamic range and excellent color reproduction. Sad Kodak did away with it. I still have my 35mm SLR and would happily use it if I could still get that film. And this was 70 mm film stock.

Must have been tough on the gearbox.

As far as I know, Bandini is the only driver to ever be killed at Monaco.

Clive ... the cars are not original F1 cars, but the Montecarlo track is the original one. In many parts of the track there were no guard rails, so if an F1 car came out of the track it ended up against a wall or a street lamp and to "protect" the most dangerous points they had put some hay bales, which in the case of Bandini, they take immedialtely fire making the situation worse. Safety was just an option.

Bought the DVD the day it was released. Saw the film 13 times at the drive in; always paired with the same movie...The Dirty Dozen.

Not really. The TV cameras for Apollo were only finished literally weeks before the mission. And they used a variety of different TV cameras on Apollo, as the technology improved over the years.

ESPN=suck. I miss Hobbs and Matchett.

mcbeaulieu where these extras on the dvd ?

​@@submerge1105 that was straight from the race itself right at the begining. That lap was maybe 7-9 minutes after flag was dropped.

And 9 years later, here is the sound I was talking about 😂😂 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jNZmlMSj0sXKqH0.html

That's because it was. It was a genuine tunnel cut into the cliff face and passed under the train station. The station was demolished and a hotel built in its place. The replacement "tunnel" is not a tunnel in the true sense. It is really an underpass which goes under the basement of the hotel.

Incrivelmente,essa filmagem foi mesmo feito na época,em 1966

All. Bernie would have wanted too much $. At the time Enzo didn't want the name Ferrari in the movie at all. Frankenheimer cut together a shot film of what he shot at Monaco and aired it for him...Enzo changed his mind and the rest is history and GREAT RACING.
