He carried himself so well he could easily have been a diplomat or a statesman. Rest in peace Jim Clark. You were the very best.
A true gentleman of the sport. I once met Jim Clark very briefly whilst at boarding school in 1962. A school friend's sister was going out with him, and Jim Clark and the sister came to collect my friend at the end of term. I knew who he was as I was an avid motor-racing fan back then and later competed at club level as Clark had done early on. He was just an ordinary guy to all appearances, driving an Austin Cambridge car - as boring a conveyance as one could get in those days. I asked him where he would be racing next and he was happy to talk about his plans for a few moments before he left.
Such a nice guy. Rip Jim.
So class..... One of the best racing driver... We don't forget you JIM.... Rest in peace....
Jim Clark est la représentation du pilote le plus talentueux le plus doué et le plus rapide de tous les temps avec Ayrton Senna . Jim Clark avait la grâce et la précision au volant. Colin Chapman lui a permis de s'exprimer de façon magistrale au volant de ses Lotus tellement véloces tellement fragiles ..Une autre époque
La rapresentation du pilote plus "complete" de tous les temps est était Stirling Moss, le Roi sans Coronaire
Dommage que Dan gurney ne soit pas reste chez Brabham, il aurait ete champion du monde
Jim was a lovely, self-effacing genius...drivers, and indeed all stars, of today take note...
Atticus Finch: Hear hear!
What a jewel piece!!! Thanks for posting 👊
Thanks for posting! Jim Clark is my all time F1 hero!!
Thank you for posting this. Great footage.
A truly gentleman!
Great video showing a great driver who was taken from us all long before he should have been. Its a shame that all the idiots on the roads, especially on their mobiles, don't consider that they're not paying attention. It would have been a good laugh though if Jim had taken the reporter around a race track for a few laps!! That would have destroyed his Swiss reserve!!!
Jim Clark , a fine driver & equally fine characther. Love❤ & Respect.
Un être très talentueux et imminent sympatrique, par opposition à l'arrogance de bien des champions d'aujourd'hui. Plein d'avenir et mort en course à 32 ans! Quel tragédie pour ses parents qui ne voulaient pas qu'ils fassent de moto car "trop dangereux"! Merci de nous avoir poster ce reportage.
D'accord!
Je l'ai vu courir. Son pilotage était élégant et précis. Aucun autre pilote ne faisait autant d'écart avec ses poursuivants !
What a wonderful find this is!!
Thank you.
What a guy. Shame he lived a short life.
my dad had one in 1964 and did hill climbs i have pictures and awards and the steering wheel still robert payne and raymond payne my uncle they had it race tuned they went on holiday to scotland in 1965 with the car i have the pictures
My parents wouldn't let me get on a motorbike! haha... What a gent!
ray rolled it and rod chapman got the car home on his trailer before he started racing big trucks
So Jim Cark drives what's basically a souped up family sedan while Lewis Hamilton drives a Pagani Zonda supercar. How times change. A bit of a silly interview but Jim does say which of the other F1 stars of the day he fears the most on the track - G. Hill, Surtees and Gurney.
The Lotus Cortina was the Zonda of its day. There were very few examples of racing cars for the road back then.
Silly? 😂😂
Switzerland banned motoracing since the news of Le Mans 1955.
Many Swiss might not have known a lot about him or motoracing.
There were Swiss F1 drivers (as mentioned Jo Siffert, Silvio Moser, a few others prior) but the one that drew crowds was yet to come: Clay Regazzoni.
So not a very popular sport per se.
Jim Clark, el mejor piloto de todos los tiempos.
