This is a wonderful video. Francois Cevert was, at the time, one of the most popular, new drivers in Formula One. He was dashingly handsome, and well loved for his great personality and skill. Someone should make a high quality movie about the relationship between Jackie Stewart and Francois Cevert. It was Mr. Cevert's death, at Watkins Glen, that started the relentless climb to the safe Formula One cars we see today. It made Jackie Stewart so angry that he started fighting, both in public and private, team bosses and the sport, to stop the crazy dangerous practices, that never let drivers survive accidents that were inevitable in the sport. Rest In Peace Francois. You saved many lives.
Jackie Stewart was already on way out in 1973 and had been pressing for safety years before Cervert’s death. he planned on retiring after the race the whole season- but chose not to tell anyone until he clinched in Italy. Regarding avtivism, he led a boycott of Spa in 1969, Nurburgring in 1970 and pushed for wider runoffs and improvements- despite huge pushback from other drivers and circuits. He buried dozens of friends. The death of his friend and heir apparent Cervert was devastating but basically the final chapter of his F1 legacy as a driver.
@@phil4986 A very nice interview with Danny Sullivan on "Beyond the Grid" with Tom Clarkson is worth the time. Danny knew Francois and confirmed everything about him...dashingly handsome, cultured, and just an amazingly nice individual...and yes, the consumate ladies man.
Would love to see a movie about the relationship between him and Jackie, I think it would be a great window into f1 in the 70's - the wild parties, the insane cars, the camaraderie amongst drivers, the master and the protege, sideburns etc
@@LifeOfACarNerd If you haven't seen it, "The Formula One Drivers - The Quick and the Dead" has a lot of interview footage with Both Stewart and Cevert, as well as Peter Revson and others. There's some pretty graphic scenes in there as well, so be warned.
And not a super yacht to be seen! Just the local's dinghy's moored harbour side. A superb piece of both sporting and local history. Thank you for posting it.
Fantastic footage that gives great insight to the layout of the Monaco circuit and the technicality of driving an 70's F1 car with comparatively high power and little grip or traction round the tight circuit.
Was watching a very good documentary on Francois Cevert here around a fortnight ago. I never knew much about him because I began following the sport properly in the mid eighties. Broke my heart to hear about what happened to this guy and when you combine this with Tom Pryce, Ronnie Peterson, Roger Williamson and as far back as Jim Clark, you could weep at all this tragically wasted talent, PURELY to compromise on a few extra seconds per lap!! RIP to all those fantastic driver needlessly killed
As far as Cévert jumping the start, it was very common for drivers doing it in the days when a man dropping a checkered flag standing inches from the cars was the norm, especially in Monte Carlo. Jackie Stewart mentions on the 1971 film "Weekend of a Champion" that Monaco had an old timer doing all the race starts, and the drivers on the front rows watched his legs, because he always bent them, immediately before dropping the flag, so all drivers that could see this man's legs jumped the start, himself included. On this 1973 race it was more like Peterson had a "moral" approach to the dropping of the flag, and all other drivers did not, Cévert especially.
Fantastic helicopter footage in particular, also to see the Loews Hotel construction site over the tunnel, the old hairpin at La Rascasse and how much less clutter there was around the track in those days. It must have been a dream for spectators with such low Armco barriers - if a lot more dangerous!
Saw this race live on TV, but the BRM onboard footage was a reminder there were still curbs on a "modern" F1 circuit! There is a scene on the 1971 film "Weekend of a Champion" where Jackie Stewart is showing Roman Polanski the track while driving a funny golf-cart like vehicle, where he specifically mentions that drivers had to be very careful not to touch the curbs because it could easily cut the tyres and damage a wheel, and it was indeed very common that it happened in those days.
Yeah, sometimes you'll see someone flinch, then stop, then get away much more slowly than they would have otherwise, but they still get penalized on top of that. It's like a double penalty.
@nathanstroud2223 Back on the 70's there weren't the penalties that are around now, jump starts were a regular thing & no one was penalised for it. It was way too lexed back then & way too strict now. I think the sport needs something inbetween?
This was my first championship F1 race and I was in an apartment along the front straight. This race had the most unusual finish in the history of the sport: The top six finishers at Monaco in 1973 finished the championship in the identical order: Tyrrell, Lotus, Lotus, Tyrrell, McLaren, McLaren. Stewart, Fittipaldi, Peterson, Cevert, Revson, Hulme. Sadly, three were champions, and three were killed . . .
Is there any way to upload in parallel a version without frame generation? The quality improvement is really good but the 60fps frame generation is inducing some unwanted distortion. The original frame rate was ok. Great stuff!
Bellissima la camera car di NANNI GALLI ❤️🇮🇹 SULLA ISO WILLIAMS ! GALLI dopo questa gara appese il casco al chiodo ! Mitico NANNI GALLI RIPOSA IN PACE ❤️🇮🇹🇮🇹❤️
Será que brevemente neste canal veremos grandes corridas da Formula Um dos anos 80 e 90 com essa excelente qualidade de video também ? Saudações do Brasil !
But the risks were much higher back then kid that's the difference..to make up time in that era takin risk would get u killer on the track if u made a mistake

He was also reported to be very popular with the ladies

that's a great point it actually look s so much better with the dingy's . and it truely looks like a local event.

golden decade of F1 for me...
Can't beat that DFV soundtrack.
Wonderful to see this footage so crisp and vivid. Many thanks
So high quality and vivid footage!!! A jump into the past!❤
Fantastic! Thank you very much for this footage so vivid. Looks like this race was just yesterday.
I cannot agree more. The 'Aire' is captured with unbelievable quality. Just love it. Thankyou 😊

The framerate is incredible. It really looks like it was shot recently! Amazing job!
The remarkable work that you've done truly brings the magic back to Monaco.
seeing that these cars are less grippy to the road then the newer cars, it adds excitement 🎉

What a nice sweet person. Will never forget him. I remember asking for his autograph 1973 in Mosport, Canada
Love to see the cars sliding around. Awesome
Clairvoyant: "You gonna die in a race track."
François Cevert: "What a glorious death."
This grand prix / race is surely the most beautiful in the world..!
I love it... Especially the old editions..

No es un BRM...es un ISO RIVOLTA...
L'on board è con Nanni Galli su ISO....
Esatto. Nanni Galli alla guida, nel suo ultimo GP di Formula 1
If fate wasn't so cruel, Cervert would have been world champion
It’s impressive how Monaco hasn’t really changed much great footage.
Super great - I love it - more please if possible!
Welcome back!
Just wow people! The image quality here is amazing in my opinion.
Amazing!!! It happened yesterday!!!
Wonderful!!!!
この速度で市街地走るの凄すぎやろ
les images sont tellement belles qu'on a l'impression que la course se passait ce WE
AMAZING ❤ THANKS GUYS
Looks like Cevert jump started this time. Also it was the first race with long tunnel version.
Back in the day when you could jump the start (by a long way too). The policing of it now is FAR too strict.
In some of the races around this time, half the grid would be jumping the start quite considerably. Pretty funny to watch

Also this was the first Monaco GP with new Swimming pool and Rascasse sections.
リアブレーキがほとんど効かない状態のマシンでそれでなくても難しくブレーキの負担が大きいモナコで優勝したジャッキースチュワート氏。彼を天才と呼ばずして何と呼ぼうか。
Incroyable images 😍
Hope in some 80's-90's onboard. Thanks
I have been following Formula 1 since 1981 as this is the best Monaco footage I have EVER seen!
This was my first championship F1 race and I was in an apartment along the front straight.
This race had the most unusual finish in the history of the sport:
The top six finishers at Monaco in 1973 finished the championship in the identical order:
Tyrrell, Lotus, Lotus, Tyrrell, McLaren, McLaren.
Stewart, Fittipaldi, Peterson, Cevert, Revson, Hulme.
Sadly, three were champions, and three were killed . . .
Three were champions?
Stewart (Scotland) and Fittipaldi (Brazil) and Hulme (New Zealand).
Fittipaldi - Piquet - Senna
(Brazil 's Champions)
"And I suddenly realized that I was no longer driving the car consciously"
Is there any way to upload in parallel a version without frame generation? The quality improvement is really good but the 60fps frame generation is inducing some unwanted distortion. The original frame rate was ok. Great stuff!
I thought exactly that
Damn what for a great footage. This is how F1 should be! Today is not F1, it's Formula Kindergarten!
Images fantastique
Bonito video y fantasticas tomas desde el helicóptero
On top of the world!!
Bellissima la camera car di NANNI GALLI ❤️🇮🇹 SULLA ISO WILLIAMS ! GALLI dopo questa gara appese il casco al chiodo ! Mitico NANNI GALLI RIPOSA IN PACE ❤️🇮🇹🇮🇹❤️
Beatiful cars
Amazing
Even helicopters have become quieter 🤣. The good old days. Love it & yes mr. Cervert RIP
When F1 was worth watchlng
Será que brevemente neste canal veremos grandes corridas da Formula Um dos anos 80 e 90 com essa excelente qualidade de video também ? Saudações do Brasil !
camera arrive 35mm by Brunswick Films
Retire a palavra F1 do título, pois o RUclips derruba por causa dos direitos da F1
The Loews under construction and the Portier underbridge as it was a railway
現在ならばGoProなどの小型軽量カメラで撮影出来るけど、当時は肩載せタイプのデカイカメラしか無かったから、搭載位置や固定が大変だっただろうな
Is it possible to find the original video ? This video looks like heavily cleaned.
Це реставрація із використанням A.I.?
Les 6 premiers de cette course seront à la fin les 6 premiers du championnat.
1:39 They used this footage in Rush, replacing 1973 cars with 1976 designs.
I swear I remember seeing that before!
I swear I remember seeing that before!
all the vintage races should be upscaled by someone...
Not one of these overpaid so called drivers of tiday could drive one of these cars...real racing
This looks great but is it real?, just looks a bit too good and polished, sorry if I'm wrong
It's a videogame !!! ???
Of course no?
No but the final section of the video looks like AI for sure ( in the tunnel)
In 2024, F1 was 17 seconds faster than this. Even F3 was 4 seconds faster than this. That s some technology advancement
Yeah, but the excitement is mostly gone.
But the risks were much higher back then kid that's the difference..to make up time in that era takin risk would get u killer on the track if u made a mistake
Monaco mafia
World population in 1973 - 3.9 bilion people
World population in 2024 - 8.2 bilion people
Questa è la VERA formula 1!
No stupid chicanes
トンネル暗すぎ!?
Looks incredibly slow compared to today's standards, but was still a spoilt rich boy's game.
Damn, letting off way too early
