Ну и самое главное - в 77 году Ханта в Хескете и в помине не было, ибо в 76 он перешел в Макларен. Комментатор говорит, что это 1975 год, что как раз похоже на правду.
It happened….that’s life…..Lauda did all that he could, do you not think that James realised that? Part of James / McLarens victory in that championship was in overcoming Ferraris repetitive protests that were their attempt to buy time for Niki to come back…..and their blatant coercion with FIA official fuel test of McLarens legal fuel at Monza, declaring it illegal when it was latterly proved not……only in Italy…
Hello, unluckily this country (where unluckily I live) is always very famous...for sheeeeeets like the one they tried against Hunt/McLaren on that occasion.
He must have been a charming, daring guy but if you take into consideration that he could go bankrupt after wining F1 championship, we must realise that he was not the brightest crayon in the box.
James was advised to put the bulk of his earnings with Lloyds of London…..who crashed with payouts to victims of great England flood, losing him, I guess 89% of his ‘hard earned’ when the Lloyds names were called to ‘front up’(come up with the readies)…..you couldn’t write it! That’s why he was cycling to the BBC studios to earn a wage with Murray doing F1 commentaries……if I remember correctly, one of his first aired comments, at the conclusion of the race…albeit on an F2/F3 race was “ What a load of rubbish “
In 1977 Hunt has a similar coming-together with Mario Andretti at the exit of Tarzan at Zandvoort. When I told Mario that Hunt was blaming him, Mario replied, “He’s full of shit”. I guess it depends on where you’re sitting when these things happen . . .
Hunt won a nasty rain filled GP race. Visibility was down to 50 feet at times. During the race, he passed someone that later said hunt was going so fast, he didn't know who it was. Interviewed after the race, asked how he won, by a lot, Hunt said....bigger balls.
I thought he waited to throw his helmet onto him. Yeap. There is a reason why they made a movie with this driver. And there is a reason why no other F1 driver will be in any movie ever. Although raikonen could be a good candidate. But I guess he missed his window. He is too old for these sits.
