Formula 1 - 1978 - Part 1

Great video, thanks for sharing! I wish I could have had the opportunity to see this live! Stand in the grass close enough you could reach out and touch them! Its truly AMAZING to see!

true...

No, let the F1 drivers of today fully utilize 21st century technology, while at the same time increasing importance on driver skill, with the banning of traction control and what not. do not hamper them with regulations unless, with saftey regulations, they prove necessary for preserving life.

i need paper because i cry old the F**king video i miss that days dude

They were great days because prior to the advent of CFD and wind tunnels, designers could play a wild card and radically change the pecking order. This was, to name but two examples, the second year of turbos (Renault) and ground effect (Lotus). Perhaps it seemed as though the drivers were more "macho" with Gilles in particular not being restrained in showing what he was capable of. The fact is now the formula is a manufacturers show, the stakes are higher and by extension, the skills higher

Well said, I agree with you 100%.

People always say racing today is boring and notworthy referring racing during the bygone years was "for true men only". What should we do then? Send pilots to the moon with sixties equipment over and over again?

Look, this are the heroes. Better then nowadays P***ys !

nowadays formula is electronic race or something:S

manual gears and clutch should come back:D

Those were the days that races were about pilots. Nowadays is for engineers and salesman...

You're so right it's unbelievable, I love the 70's, 80's and early 90's.
When Senna died a great part of Formula 1 died with him.

andate a vedere "eddie irvine vs jean alesi"........è per gli amanti della formula 1

funkdogg i cudnt agree more these were THE days... over sized and over powered go-karts absolutly amazing to watch pue skill and talent ohh and balls...and your right f1 drivers of today are too pampered

Amen bro...Even guys that dominated when I was a kid like Prost, Senna, Piquet and Mansell would KILL these boys now..

I wish i was born earlier so i could have watched it live... From the days that drivers were real men...Not complaining P***y 's like Alonso....Hamilton!!!!

Excellent. I might sound very repetitive but really its awesome. Many thanks again!
