Good find! I've played 2 games with the 'ring, GT4 of course, and Grand Prix Legends. GPL is the 1967 course, with the shrubbery right up to the pavement, no armco, no runoff, etc. Really shows how far they've come is safety consciousness, yet how much the same the basic track remains.

Bit of a classic that vid. On a similar note is anyone going to the historics at Silverstone?

 

[Grand Prix]

Those are F2's. The F1's were a bit scarier still:



I'm amazed such good footage exists though, when you consider that John Frankenheimer (who directed "Grand Prix") thought it would be too costly to film at the Nurburgring, just one year earlier!

WOW some brave guys there.

And compare that to how the newer F1's take the o'l Nurb.

Its amazing how much he has to lift off going over the crests to make sure the car stays on the tarmac. Good stuff
