    One of the most tragic races in motorsport history. Thank you for keep uploading.

    Merci beaucoup de nous faire revivre cette course mythique. On a du mal à croire que les gens tournent leur regard vers la course alors qu'en face un drâme horrible se déroule dans la tribune. La mort ne leur faisait pas peur. Peut être habitués avec la 2ème guerre qui était encore dans les mémoires.

    You can see Hawthorn pitting the following lap as he broke so hard that he missed the pits in his first attempt. He definitely somehow contributes to the tragedy will all respect to his memory.

    Even though this race played host to one of the biggest motorsport tragedies ever, I’m impressed that the video quality is as good as it is.

    the one scene was hoping to be upscaled or colored in is not, I am assuming it is because it's the only footage that has a panning camera shot. I have seen a lot more footage of the disaster from the British Pathe I believe, it is pretty crazy.

    You notice they never show you the Mercedes rear body work opening up like a flap to help the burnt out brakes in the corners?
    Look at frame 1 min and 50 seconds on this and see the Mercedes coming round the corner behind the D types with its rear body just shutting down from its upright position as an air brake, its clearly visible if not 4 seconds of film
    This is why they pulled out as they didn't have the brakes
    They even had to fit a clear window in the flip up back as drivers complained from behind they couldn't se ahead when it came up
    And then ofc the Austin Healy that caused the crash along with its driver and the works Healy team saying nothing as hawthorn took the blame
    lots of bad things in this race but none of them jaguar or its drivers

      Stirling Moss found that, in addition to aiding braking, partial deployment of the 300SLRs airbrake helped stabilise his car through medium speed corners.

      Saying the Austin Healey caused the crash and let Hawthorn and the Jag team take the blame is way too harsh. What did you expect Lance Macklin to do? Hawthorn essentially brake checked him (unintentionally) and he had no where to go.
      Do you work at Jaguar? This is a pretty unpopular opinion

    Hard to believe one of those drivers and 83 people will die later that evening
