Old F1 Highlights
This morning an F1 mad co-worker of mine sent me a link to the BBC’s F1 site proclaiming “Proper Grand Prix on a proper racetrack.”.
Now, we have had several conversations in work lately about the quality of the tracks in the last few seasons of F1, with a number of newly designed tracks being included in the years line-up including the new track still being built in Abu Dhabi for this years Abu Dhabi F1 event. The discussions have included comments along the lines of “all of the new tracks are boring and have not been designed with passing in mind” etc.
So as i opened the link this morning i was not sure what i would be presented with, but to my surprise it was the BBC’s back log of Grand Prix highlights going all the way back to the 1979 French Grand Prix with the epic last lap battle between Gilles Villeneuve and Rene Arnoux.
