It depends on tires, skirts (lifted vs not lifted), intake restrictors, etc. I'm sure there are plenty of ways to rig the racing so that it's close and fair. If only modern F1 could better figure out how to do that...
This cars are not all competitive. I like the fact that modern F1 is not all BoP and rigged. It always was a constructers championship and it always should stay that way. If that means that Mercedes is the one dominating, because they found a way to build a car with a connected suspension despite the fact of FRIC being banned - I like it.
when new and fighting for a championship yes but for a reunion race I think it's more down to driver skill and how hard they are willing to push their cars
Idk why they say these are the fastest cars to ever race at Laguna Seca. 991 GT3 Cup cars race there and are just as quick. DPi cars and LMP2 cars race there and are far faster, probably the fastest at this point
Bid money brings big legendary names and cars. Jacques Villeneuve in the F1 of his father. It was really a misted opportunity, like some people always do....International intention, not only local...
Are they using original engines? Every car sounded alike and were screaming like they should. Maybe they are all using some modern Cosworth racing V8 engines?
A video testament to the fact that one could build and operate a successful F1 car for an entire season in 1970 for what it costs to run one race today. (Maybe even less.) F1 is out of control. It's an arms race on fat tires.
VERY FAMOUS F1 ITALIAN DRIVER BARRY ALREADY or is it Mario Andretti ARTURO ROSARIO. BEAUTIFULL VOICE TO TEXT DEVICE... OR IS IT A GIRL IN INDIA DOING THE TYPING???
Where do they get these commentators from ? Too much Yakity Yak BS. For example, I really don't care how difficult it was for you to build a model of some F1 car as a kid, I don't care about the movie Rush (it was crap BS drivel ), and the pedigree of drivers in this race also doesn't matter, it's the car itself - year, who was the lead driver of the day - done ! Go watch some English commentary on Classic racing and get some ideas. This is not the usual NASCAR, or Indy champ crap you usually report on - get your act together ......... BTW, please note Vintage racing is more popular than any form of other Motor Sport right now - so get it right guys, please, will ya, aha, thanks !
I mean, you're right, they provide commentary. And a lot of it, but compared to modern motorsports, they give it a breath. I wish modern broadcasters would shut the hell up so we could hear. This has more need for history lessons.
I could watch this all day
Thanks so much for uploading all these races from over the years. Great watching. Cheers from Auckland, New Zealand.
You wouldn't think a car from the late 60s would be competitive with a car from the early 80s.

I think it's more down to the drivers not the cars
F1 was always mostly down to the cars if you wanted to win

Jesus Christ! This absolutely beautiful!😍
30 FPS hurts my eyes.
Apparently better cameras were not in the budget.
I was there. It was cool
Oh, the noise, THE GLORIOUS NOISE... where is it in modern F1?? They're running souped-up lawn mowers...
indeed
This is such a great race
I love these cars
i love rolex monterey motorsports reunion
awesome! thank you for uploading
Was that an RX8 as a safety car?
Yup . Rotary is the closest you can get to F1 sound so makes sense.
It's Laguna so Mazda eerything.
So it should be. I own an RX8 myself and it's awesome to see it in such a position and type of event.
Ahh Laguna seca Mazda raceway! North of where I live! Been there a lot

The wolf is one of the best looking f1 cars ever
Bruh, those noises!

I'm surprised the F1 cars weren't at this years race. 😓😥😢🙁😔☹️
No Lotus 79?

Do this with 90's F1 cars.
1988-2005
Was there a 98T ?
no that car drove in 1986
old skool lola😎
I was there

HAVE YOU SEEN THE MOVIE WRONG TREE??? OR IS IT GRAND PRIX
I wanted this
fuck u trying to kill people
can you guys fuck off?
VERY FAMOUS F1 ITALIAN DRIVER BARRY ALREADY or is it Mario Andretti ARTURO ROSARIO. BEAUTIFULL VOICE TO TEXT DEVICE... OR IS IT A GIRL IN INDIA DOING THE TYPING???
Is this an "full throttle" race or more like "for show"? I mean why would you risk to crash such a rarity?
That is what I was thinking
because it's what they are made for
in stuff like this it dosnt matter how rare it is it's if you have got an f1 car from any era you want to race it
race cars are for racing. and they don't go 110% but they're getting these cars sideways
+Sam Wilde ou
yeah I could mix it with these guys easy

They used to commentate races on the late Speed Channel. I guess they found the actual race to be little bit boring.
It's a nostalgic exhibition race at a motorsports reunion, what did you expect?
I expected the announcers to provide more pertinent info about each car, drivers, teams, placings, championships - You Know, Racing History.
