Love the last photo

That would still be an amazing sight with the modern cars roaring away. They must do some kind of historic racing with those same cars at Spa?

those days of walking down the pitlane with a martini and smoking a camel are long gone , and that was just the drivers , modern motorsport is to sterile and clinical these days , you would never be able to recreate the atmosphere of the 60s and 70s when men were men and cars were cars , if you know what i mean , spectators are to far removed these days . everything is too safe

I like the comment

"There used to be a jump here but they flattened it... not very exciting now..."

And also how quick he was overtaken and then blamed the weight of the camera for it...lol

I have that, and about an hour on top, on DVD if anyone would like to borrow it. The sensation of speed with the sound up and on a large plasma.........different class.
