It’s 1967 Okay?



We were watching some random, modern F1 footage last night and started wondering if we were just idiots for not being into it. Then we ran across this segment on the GP at the NĂĽrburgring back in '67 and realized that no, we weren't. This, friends, is damn-wonderful hairy-chested F1 awesomeness at its finest. Plus, it's got Gurney totally freaking dominating until his driveshaft goes and Ickx face-stomping Formula One guys in a Formula Two car. The genie of death may lie there, but damn if the 'Ring + 1960s F1 vehicles doesn't send shivers of the best kind. Flugplatz, anyone?
