The last lap of the Monaco Grand Prix; Jack Brabham leads, followed by Jochen Rindt in the Lotus. Brabham looks set to win but locks up his brakes in the last corner and crashes into the wall. The guy with the flag is so confused that he forgets to wave the chequered flag for Rindt..

Monaco: ego crusher!
Somehow the camera positions and helo tracking shots look more interesting than the recent versions...
Wonder if we'll see some of that drifting and sliding, this year.
Thanks for the link, and of course the half hour entertainment following all those subsequent links!

OMG I remember that so clearly as if it was just a few weeks ago. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
But it is true, the driving then was more driver dependent and as a result more exciting. Less technology. They has three pedals and only two feet for heavens sake....

Reminds me of the movie "Grand Prix". Although that was even earlier.
