    Possible repost (searched and couldn't find it but that doesn't really mean anything).

    I had forgotten how "unsafe" F1 was back in '76 (guess today will seem unsafe in 40 years also). It's amazing that there weren't a lot of spectators killed/injured in those days. Very entertaining video and will open the eyes of those who weren't around then.

    I already forget the name of the movie, but the next Ron Howard directed film is focused on the Lauda and Hunt duels in F1

    IIRC, and I haven't watched it all yet, it's a marshall who wanted to get him out of harms way after a shunt. [There were some good reasons he was known as "Hunt the Shunt". ;)]

    One hell of a character, that's for sure..... I've told my story of partying with him around tents in the mud at Silverstone on Sunday evening - *Very* cool guy!

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Oh yes, I did hear something like that before. Can you post link to your story. I'd like to read it.
