What a cool video. I love the editing and vibe with the music/slow motion. Wild to think that BMW had a works F2 team in 1978. Hard to imagine that today.
They are certainly impressive these 2 litre racing F2 cars of 1978, much more than the lighter early 70s chassis or early 1980s Thackwell Honda era were F1 was becoming predominant and it was a restrictive somewhat amateur thing with tight specifications. In 1978 its the Full power French industry of Renault and BMW Munich, there still in 1978 being too many overtones, personnel and connections to 1944 about Porsche and BMW for them to go into F1 and go beyond F2,/Can Am or G6 2.2 turbo 250 mph on Ickx 936 on the Mulsanne.straight. But that means F2 is very expensive and in some ways competitive, unlike the anarchistic approach of Williams or Chapman in F1 at.this time. In some ways F1 is ascesible to talent with money and very high IQ or ice riding skills in the late 1970s because the road thru F3, Atlantic and F5000 in the UK, Australia and US is not that expensive and the number of talented financed aspirants is very small. At the time I was aware that French/ German F2 is the hardest most dangerous road to F1 in my view it could be done by none not even Hawthorne or J Stewart without several years on these circuits. While we are largely British, my family never took Britain seriously and always looked to German and US as the std and France and Australia culturally My mother thought Rommel the greatest general and asked how close did St John Fancourt get to getting the Kaisers line on the throne when he bumped Disraeli out of the Barnstaple seat.
