I bought this video 2 years ago when it came out but im sure most of the stuff will be on you tube these days. Still worth getting though. Best bits - Senna at Suzuka, Schumacher chasing Hill and Depailler.

Yes it'll be a worthwhile addition to your collection.
What crispy has said is great, there's also Fangio chucking what I presume is a 250F around a test track, Stirling Moss all arms and elbows, some leary action from the 60's at Nurburgring and the fantastic Matra V12 sound in the back of Jacques Laffite's Ligier at Monza '78! The Moss, Stewart and Andretti narrative is good too! |

I found it bitterly dissapointing.
Whilst the onboard stuff is great (generally) it is nothing particularly new. And it is such a short DVD, which annoyed me most of all. Rates 5/10 for me. Still, it's always nice to watch Senna lapping Suzuka every once in a while. |

Also found it slightly disappointing.
Although the on-board footage was pretty awesome,it only lasted about 40 minutes,the remaining 20 minutes given over to a Driver's 'Hall of Fame',which is another category altogether. Look out for a bargain price

Ah... So $40 is too much...
Good thing I haven't bought it yet. |
