    Watched a great documentary following Jackie Stewart at Monoco during 1971. Filmed by Roman Polanski and well done IMO. Jackie really gives lots of info on his philosophy of driving as well of lots of footage giving driving tips. On Netflix right now. Found it engaging. Called Weekend With a Champion. Think any F1 fan may too. :)

    I watched it a couple of years ago. I remember the era because I have been an F1 fan since I was a kid (I'm not sure how that happened growing up on a horse in Western Colorado).
    What is most striking is just how simple (relatively) things were then. Everything from the cars themselves to the way the pits functioned, how the races were marshaled, etc.
