Sorry but looking at serious racing accidents from any era doesn't float my boat at all.

Sorry, but I agree with the previous post.
I saw two Mercedes (and probably Stirling Moss) on the Le Mans start with two D Type Jaguars getting away first, but when I watched drivers probably dying, I switched off.

Interesting footage and we should all do well to view it in its historical context as a reminder of how dangerous motor racing was and still is but we would be wrong to gain entertainment from it, as the others say people are dying on there and any thought of car spotting was forgotten in the first few seconds of the start of the film
