Extra Nostalgic Wednesday: Champions Forever, F1 Drivers

An hour length  documentary about the Formula 1 during the 70s.

Yeah yeah, i know..

dont mind the 70s porn music. The film is a little bit lengthy and cheesy but it’s well worth it.

I love the manual gearbox, the John Player Special car, the cigarette smoking coolness, the Nurburgring and Jackie Stewart, and most of all,  I loved how mechanical these cars were,and how everything was raw.  We also remember the fallen drivers and honor their contribution to the sport.
