Graham Hill is just perfect! He is the prototype English gentlemen superhero race car driver😎. That mustache, that chin, that hair and that smile....PERFECT.
I really enjoy watching cars without wings or barely any. The suspensions working over the humps is nice to see also. Cars now days don't have nearly the attraction to me that these cars had.
Wasn't it interesting that the commentator described the track as tight and twisting. Yet today, they are still racing on it despite the fact that the cars are MUCH faster and MUCH wider. When will the FIA realize that, while history is good, driver safety is more important. If Monaco wants to keep the race, then the track needs MAJOR upgrades to fit the cars. As it is is just dangerous.
Many thanks for putting this up. F1 looked as relaxing(read amateur), as Club racing back then....and those wing mounts in pressed sheet steel, look like something you`d find in a local hardware shop. Had anyone calculated the loading put through those things at speed/during acceleration & braking? Graham Hill with his mustache, Jackie Stewart with his Tartan-brown Royal lipstick....
I looked at the thumbnail and instantly recognized Graham Hill by his helmet. Back in the 80's and 90's you recognized drivers bu their helmet design. So when did this change? Today, drivers seem to have a new helmet design for every race. How are we supposed to know who is who anymore?
It changed when drivers started hiring professional artists to design and paint their helmets. Then, like the cars in some series, they started doing one-off designs for big races. Before you knew it, helmets became the busy, messy, sponsor-covered things they are today.
It was actually called the black wave of Yugoslav film. Much to choose ftom, but my favourite is "who is singing over there", directed by Slobodan Sijan.
The startert starts off in the middle of the track and is almost run over, streetlights beside the track without any guard rails, people on the sidewalks near the racing cars, racing cars that have broken left almost in the middle of the track, was safety an optional?
It puzzles me why F1 engineers back then thought the wings should be positioned so high up. I mean, the downforce, whether the wing is level with the car or positioned one meter higher is the same, but with much smaller risk of collapse. How could they imagine those thin aluminum bars would hold up against the tremendous wind forces at speed? The sport was already plenty dangerous without adding up those pieces of structural insanity.
I love the drivers chatting from about 6.12 on - huge sportscar rivals Siffert and Rodriguez, both killed in 1971, McLaren and Courage, both killed in June 1970, and even Stewart and Surtees who I don't think got on at all, mainly because of Surtees's jealousy and ridiculous attitude to safety.
Monaco is a joke race these days; whoever leads lap 1 wins. No passing anymore...there's really no way to fix that unless you give them 200 HP cars. Lower power puts the premium on driving on a track like this.
People say progress is good,computers and paddle shifter,combined with,what the millinels call drivers ,have turned this type of racing to just nothingvworth wasting ur time watching
Wings. Advertisers loved them. Teams made more money from that than racing. The cars became ever uglier. Logos replaced shape as the dominant art form. Feh.
I wish they showed oldies like this more often. Especially here in the States 🏁🏎🇺🇸
Thanks for this beatifull video.

But not as perfect as Scot’s man Stewart. Or Clark for that matter
And if it wasn't enough a whim of nature to sculpture that white knight, he was called 'Graham Hill'. Magnificent!
E😂

F1 cars do not have any suspension in comparison to these old crates
@Andrew Ongais these cars had it all even a cigarette ash tray no joke 😯😯😯

@@davidedwards3361 what are you talking about, it"s the least dangerous because it"s the slowest track of the whole serie...
3:27 ho camera guy, fortunately you were in 1969 and not in 2021 !
At 8:08 there’s a close up of something special. It’s the mechanics bolting the rear wing upright to the hub on the unsprung part of the car.
And no super yachts packed in like sardines in the harbor! My how times have changed!🙀👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Transitional cars - between the classic mid 60s beauties and the ground effect cars of the late 70s. Thanks for posting.
Fantastic. Wish I were there. 89 was my first year following f1 but I feel I missed the best years.
Yes I think you did. But also a lot of tragedy so....
What to say about these legends...Heroic driving especially for BRM and Ferrari that year...
One millon of thanks!!, look the people on the track... what sweet moments..
Yeah look at them dopey idiots waiting to get run over lol
Monaco 1969 was the last F1 race for Cooper (here the T86B driven by Vic Elford and finishing 7th).

By the number on their car perchance? Let`s start with..... who races No 44?

the new pilots leave nothing behind. are farts in the wind.
Dopo più di 50 anni quel dosso sulla discesa del casinò esiste sempre. Oramai anche un dosso a Montecarlo è storia
Vorrei vedere come sali la strada per andare all'Hotel Métropole con una qualunque supercar senza quel dosso
Immagini davvero stupende! Grazie per la condivisione
That intro... I LOVE IT
Thanks for uploading!
Halcyon days. . .The cars are now worth Millions!!!. . . .
Golden era!🙌⭐
Golden showers 😂😂😂

nice video man, thanks
2:13 a car has to wait until starter walks away from track :D
Look at the stewards walking aside the track. That would be crazy nowadays!
That poor driver waiting on his pit man to jack the car gradually high enough one pump at a time with a standard hydraulic floor jack.
Raymond Baxter commentating. Bliss.
Crazy freakin' still photographers!!
Good sounds of the engines car.
I love the original Ferrari spoiler !
Every time Team Lotus entered a 49 at Monaco, it won. Not a bad record...
Que hermoso sonido de esos motores.
I was fortunate to have been at this race...my only Monaco GP to date. Excellent video..extremly well done. How do I see the rest of it.
Arriscavam tudo pela vitoria. Eram herois da velocidade pericia e ousadia. Alguns morreram. Outros ficaram para contar a historia. E a vida.
この時はロータスのジムクラークはもう亡くなっていない時なんですね。
Couldn't you edit the video in chronological order? To watch the race before the practice and qualy is weird...
Is there somewhere the whole Movie on YT?
3:29 les caméraman de l'époque étaient déjà attiré vers le sol lool
Erano gli anni più belli ,la classe era classe ,in tutte le classi sociali,oggi il giudizio orribile del xxi secolo di e il cesso che avanza
El gran Pedro Rodriguez
Si!
The startert starts off in the middle of the track and is almost run over, streetlights beside the track without any guard rails, people on the sidewalks near the racing cars, racing cars that have broken left almost in the middle of the track, was safety an optional?
Different times pal and we trusted our common sense more than we do nowadays. Common sense nowadays is as rare as rocking horse shit 😂
Graham's last win. Sadly, it was downhill from there.
He kept driving when everyone knew he was over the hill (pardon the pun).
Great but too short
Esto si era correr por las calles de Mónaco.
This was to run through the streest of Mónaco.
If you're here and you haven't seen Weekend Of A Champion, you absolutely MUST. You're welcome.

They were trying for clean air
@@car39 But is all wings were one meter above the cars, the turbulence would be the same for every car.

The camera man at 4.00 min. Dead man walking 😮
Most of the cars don’t have rear wings
The narrator sounds just like Cary Grant.
Prince Albert with hair!
JACKYがまだMATRAにいた頃か、まだMATRA V12は無くてFORD DFVを使っていたんだ。
It's too bad they didn't nix those wings as soon as they began to appear. It's supposed to be an automobile not an airplane.
Yes, on "Veoh videos"
I thpought it was pronounced cour-arge rather than curridge, poor Piers.

Curious as to why the film was terminated in such an abrupt manner? Awfully awkward.

16 cars. That is not such a bad idea. Sacrilege. I know. But I could make a case to run this race in a match racing format.
Love how the director misses 99% of the action lol
lets see the soy boy line up of 2021 drive these. they wouldnt last 1 stint

Samo je smrt siguran posao.
Sorry, this comment landed under the wrong video,
Take the glamour away from Monaco and the track is rubbish, never enjoyed the Monaco gp
Was sagt Greta eigentlich dazu ?
Yuck. Wings. Spoiled racing.
Wings. Advertisers loved them. Teams made more money from that than racing. The cars became ever uglier. Logos replaced shape as the dominant art form. Feh.
I kind of liked wings.
