Bugatti Nostalgia: Historic Racing Monaco 1984
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- Checking through his archives, Ivan came across a VHS recording of the 1984 historic Bugatti race held prior to the Grand Prix. It was a celebration of 60 years of the Bugatti Type 35 and organised by Uwe Hucke and the Automobile Club de Monaco. This video was commissioned by Ivan's customer and friend, David Heimann.
The commentary was done by the late Neville Hay and Martin Dean.
Sadly a fair few of those involved in the racing and making of this video are no longer with us.
As the historic racing is happening in Monaco this weekend, we thought it would be good to share some of this racing footage with our followers. It's not the entire video, just footage of the final practice and the very wet race.

The commentator is Neville Hay, who sadly left us only a couple of days ago.
Very saddened to hear that.
Nooo... damn.
Yes, his funeral is 4th June Wyre Forest Crematorium, 2.30pm.
priceless
thank you Ivan, no one else in the world can compete with your life stories
The best episode of the Shed EVER! Ivan. Can't believe that was only 6 laps, so much going on. Tbh, nowadays they probably would have scratched all the support races for fear of compromising the F1 race. Whilst watching, I recalled that Mansell was leading and on the way to yet another "first win" when he spun going up the hill and I fell off the edge of my chair. Probably David was lucky Murry wasn't commentating on his race, as he put the kiss on Nigel in his, lol. I used to be a marshal and on the really wet days there was nothing you could do about oil on the circuit apart from hope the rain washed it away quickly. That video is a piece of history, espeially seeing you bending back the rod in the barrier.
We might be thousands of miles away but we sure enjoy your old racing stories! Please keep the stories coming! Alberta Canada
Nice job straightening the steering rod on the fence, Ivan!
JIM ❤
Thank you Ivan, a man of your time and a real pleasure to listen to.
I'll always remember a quote made by Alain de Cadanet about the Supermarine Spitfire - "An exhaust note composed by Elgar!" Thank you Ivan for some great footage.
de Cadenet was quite a character back in the day, wasn't he?
Absolutely amazing! Best 50minutes of TV I’ve ever watched.
Rain, Monaco, and T35s. Can’t beat it 🙌
Oversteer, understeer, round you go. Fabulous stuff Ivan. I see you still had that hole in your haircut all the way back then. Thankyou for taking is to Monaco.
A very interesting video - thank you for sharing it with us. It's a shame modern day historic racing is no longer featured on mainstream TV.
Fantastic footage, all weather racing again 👌 good advice taken re the farm and hard chipping away
Great video
Thanks for sharing on RUclips 😊😊😊😊
I assume John Howell, who lived near me in East Sussex, was driving the H16 type 45/47. I used to see this car at Eric Neve's engineering works at Barcombe, when getting Eric to make one off parts for me. Eric said something like: "it never worked properly in period and it is probably never going to work properly now."
We need a calendar featuring them each month with all the details.
I don't even need to see the video - Ivan's into is pure gold. ❤
Well. What can you say about a man who stuck his neck out and now gives us the benefit of all his experience. Truly spectacular it's always an education watching your videos whist being entertained. Long may it continue.
Oh Ivan this was amazing , millions of pounds of beautiful cars in a great race , my only wish would be that more of us could get the chance to drive such amazing cars ..thank you .
Once again you surpass expectation. You never cease to amaze Ivan and crew. Overjoyed i found this channel.
Again, what's not to like. Everything that makes a thing good is here. Thanks Ivan, thanks a million.
thank you as always for the talk and how wonderful the memories you hold of these events , a challenging race in terrible rain , thanks to Suzie as always for filming and putting it together
Thank you Ivan. What a piece of automotive history you have shared and are. Very nice to see you enjoying the warmer weather.
Wonderful thank you so much.
that was brilliant thanks for sharing it Ivan
Thank you for sharing this terrific video. Have been a long time Bugatti fan, at the age of three, my uncle had a Brescia Bugatti, that I loved to play in till I went to sleep! He sold it to travel to England and Europe in 1959! Apparently, I was heartbroken, when we next visited, and it was not there! I can still remember the things I touched and saw on that car!
Thanks for sharing Ivan! Oh to be back in those care free days!
Thank you Ivan that was a marvellous race also the quality for VHS was outstanding some great skill shown hear on such narrow tires in heavy rain would like to see them go around Aintree regards from Liverpool
That was pure Magic Ivan only you could come up with that historic video THANK YOU its a winner.
Tim’s customer finished 5th but the top Bugatti behind 2 ERA’s and 2 Mazzers. Which are later cars. He drove very well, in perfect conditions unlike the race in 84. 👍🏻
Marvelous
I check every moring to see if there is a new episode. I';m like a kid when I see a new one. Then I get a coffee and watch and whoa was it a gem. Thank you Ivan and Suzie.
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video. Good to see you hands on keeping the car going Ivan .
Thank you! I thoroughly enjoyed that! That was racing on the ragged edge of control. And it was great seeing my hero (Ivan Dutton) back forty years ago.
That was great! I plan to make some popcorn tonight and watch it again! I really love those cars!
Amazing stuff Ivan. Thank oh so much for sharing it with us……😊
Thanks Ivan, that was wonderful!
Great meeting you and Susie at Donington last week.
Met Ivan today at Wallingford great guy great car would have loved to chat for longer.. thank you for the sticker
Great to meet you and what a cracking inclusive event
Just as I thought I want to see some action, I discover this excellent video from you. The year I was born and it makes me want to get out and drive my car around a track. Only ever ridden in historic Motorcycle races,now I really want to try driving. Thank you Ivan for sharing.
thank you for a fantastic 48 minutes, really enjoyed woatching and for all your imput.
Just brilliant, thanks again team.
Brillant what a great swim, ops race well prepared Ivan.🏊♀
Fabulous footage and much appreciated. Great to see Ivan in Days of Yore as well.
This was an excellent film, great close-ups, lots of cross-up action insightful interview, really fun to watch. Thank you.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank Ivan for showing it.
Superb history, Ivan. If you have anymore historic venue racing, please put on your channel & thus giving you more time to get some workshop videos sorted. How is the Red mini going? Would love to see the 57, Lotus 7 racing too...
Keep up the great content Ivan, Suzie & John.....😊😊
Quite a treat that was. Thank you.
Great video Ivan. Thanks for sharing that and your memories. I remember some of those cars (particularly the Lord Raglan car and the Trebor car) racing at Prescott Hill Climb back in the early 1980's when I was a young new driver being thrilled by all that awesome vintage machinery. I seem to remember there being one Type 35 (I think) that ran with twin rear wheels (rather like the old Auto Union hill climb car) and of course that 4 wheel drive Bugatti. Happy days. Thanks again.
Great video. Thank you. Prequel, historic video and epilogue. Good car control by all, in those conditions. Shows the value of disciplined practice.
Terrific episode! Loved the film and the race commentary was great. It was also very informative to watch you bend David's steering rod back in shape in that sophisticated forming jig! Cheers form Canada, Paul.
Brilliant Ivan, thanks for sharing this...... I've just bought a TD.. that's what drew me to your channel..... great to follow someone who knows what they are doing... ❤
thank you Ivan great show keep up the good work cheers
An excellent video thank you Ivan. Both educational and entertaining.
Thank you Ivan, vive la marque ❤
Cheers from Paris
Great footage Ivan. Thanks for sharing.
Maurice Trintignant making it seem so easy to drive a Type 54 around Monaco in the wet, when its one of the most unsuitable cars for the circuit and conditions of the day!
Very enjoyable! Cheers from the shed in Iowa
Proper race commentary...very proper!
Fantastic video Ivan, I am loving these archived old vids you are showing just recently.
Brilliant racing back then,man& machine driving skillfully against the elements..seat of the pants stuff..open cotpits & no gloves or seatbelts.. incredible..love it..Ian..👍👍
I remember watching these cars, and others at Crystal Palace back in the day, lovely stuff. Also look at the size of the cars compared to modern F1 machinery. No problem overtaking back in the 20s!
Now that was a piece of real driving, I liked you bending the track rod/steering arm in the railings, real old fashioned we can fix it mechanics. Is that Richard Pilkington in the race related to Suzie.
Nope, no relation
Sorry, not trying to offend, but the same surname, classic cars and Bugatti's did appear to fit, although I believe your father was a Ferrari person, thanks,@@suziepilkington5600
Keep up the grate work with history and working on versions cars ,
A pleasure to watch it made to look easy a sign of a real carafesman and passion 😍
Keep it all up thanks Michael
This coverage is fantastic
Wonderful.
Great video Ivan! Thanks for sharing it.
How do we organise a little brass plaque on that railing - "On this spot in 1984 Ivan Dutton used this railing to bend straight the track rod of David Hymans' #22 Bugatti which attained 2nd place in the Monaco Historic Bugatti celebration.. Vroom Vroom.." 👍
Bought my first car off Richard Pilkington. My Austin Healey 3000
Ivan Dutton celebrating 60 years of baldness. 💪 And badassery
Excellent!
What a great vid, loved the racing, and conditions were awful,
Magic! Thank you!
So interesting, thanks
Another cracking video well done Ivan Your Enthusiasm Knows No bounds..
Ps. Glad you stuck your neck out.😂👍👍
A great video. Thank you.
A young Ivan using the Monaco railings to straiten the Bugatti steering arm 👍
REAL RACING!!!
Fab Ivan, what a history!!
Absolutely Bloody Great!
I loved every second of that video;...not least watching Alain de Sideways on top form! The four-wheel-drive car (sorry, but I've forgotten its Type number) could clearly have been even better if Ettore had listened more carefully to the forceful advice of Jean-Albert Grégoire. But, instead of adopting homo-kinetic drive-shaft joints, Le Patron stuck with single Hooke joints. "Ah, la, la!".
I think the four wheel drive car was Type 53. If my memory serves, two were made, one badly crashed (written off) racing when it was new. Possibly by Jean Bugatti.
@24:11 Pace car dives into the Loews Hairpin only to push all the way out before taking hold in the wet!
Nice!
Thank you Ivan. Can you tell us about the 16 cylinder car?
Listening to the commentary on the I wonder if I'm the only one thinking 'Wacky Races'.
👍🇦🇺 Excellent Video.
A reminder of how spoiled we are today with video quality, if the tape is more then 10 years old it would be worth transferring it to digital as they deteriorate depending on storage conditions.
I'm older than Ivan even though I'm only 59. I wish I understood more than the 50% I understand, but maybe I should get it translated into English. JUST JOKING! Warm greetings from Denmark
Quite disspointed that there is a commentator constantly talking. I looked forward to hearing these beautiful cars.
Turns out, Bugatti’s are mythical sportscars but not that great hoovercrafts
how does the 4 wheel drive car work ??
The olde git. Ivan Dutton. Knows what he is doing.........Where Ivan, did it all go wrong???? :-)))))))))))) Best and equally damp wishes from the Black Forest. Mike
Ivan, didn’t David Heinman once own the Rimaldi 8C ?
Proving once and for all - Red Cars Are Faster! 😄
👍👍👍👍👍
Why two watches Ivan? Er you’ve kinda answered it now. Better watch the vid🤣
I do beg your pardon governor, but isn't it pronounced MON a co?
Not by Ivan it isn’t !
@@suziepilkington5600 I see. Well then, he must pronounce a lens for one eye as a mo NOC ele or a wise old man as an o ROC ele. Surely you must tease him about it. If I were there, I would find the temptation beyond my ability to resist! Cheers!
Isn't a borrowed helmet said to bring bad luck in motor racing? Perhaps, David Heimann would have won if he'd been able to wear his own!
