I don't think he was one of the best, he was THE best, he could race anything and win

Jim Clarke may not be considered the greatest by everyone, but is arguably the most talented ever to grace the race track. He won whatever he drove; saloon cars, Indy, sports cars and F1. The first GP I, aged 8, ever attended with my dad was Jimmy Clark’s last… the 1968 South African Grand Prix. He was sublime. I remember the day he died… I cried uncontrollably.

@@DennisMerwood-xk8wp Quire correct! Denny was supremely dedicated to racing, even to the point that he died behind the wheel at Bathurst. Those drivers would fly across the Atlantic multiple times, often to the point of total exhaustion (as happened to Jackie Stewart). Thanks for the comment.

Clarke and Tazio Nuvolari were the 2 greatest, Tazio won on bikes, in cars and Formula races. Only he, Surtees and Hailwood had such traits and successes

Clark also drove in one NASCAR race at Rockingham Speedway in North Carolina. He drove for Holmon & Moody that day. After the race he said he really enjoyed driving the big V-8 stock cars. He also planned to race in NASCAR at other events but he was unfortunately killed just months after the Rockingham race.

Jim Clark was amazing, if you could compare drivers from different eras (which you cannot) he would be head and shoulders above the rest.

The head picture is Dan Gurney.

So why does the thumbnail show Dan Gurney?

Thanks! You saved me the trouble of pointing out the error by the clueless individual posting this!

wonderful documentary the interviews filmed at the peak time where those who knew him were around to talk about him

Our villages World Champion,without a doubt THE best driver ever.

When interviewed Dan Gurney said Jim Clark’s father came up to him at the funeral and told him that Dan was the only driver that Jim feared

Jackie Stewart said “Jim was the master, I was the apprentice.”

All time best F1 drivers: Juan Manuel Fangio Niki Lauda Ayrton Senna and only then we can talk about Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, Gilles Villeneuve, Alain Prost. Jim Clark - one of the best, of course.

Tudo antigamente era no preto e branco com às filmagens também isso existia no início da fórmula 1 isso me faz lembrar do nosso grande ídolo Ayrton sena foi um dia mais triste 😢 na época em que o Ayrton sena faleceu 🆗️🚹🇧🇷🙏😢

One if nor the best , pleasure to watch

Seen Jim race in the first Canadian Grand Prix at Mosport in 1967, it was pouring rain how those guys could see was something not human, the roostertails of water coming off those rain tires made the car behind disappear Jim used to come around the corner we were watching from by playing with the throttle his front wheels would have about 4-5 inches of air under the front tires he would back off as soon as they landed he throttled up more air about three or four times every time he went by and like clockwork same thing every time nobody else did that they had to slow and accelerate carefully not Jim on off the throttle air clearance under the front tires three or four times and he was gone, never ever seen that happen again you tell me he couldn't drive, such precision and maximum confidence could only accomplish that by throttling he made the car turn without steering input hitting the throttle to turn the rear while the front had air under them every time he gave it throttle in bursts unbelievable, I never ever forgot that sight of air under both front tires the whole race without spinning off, this guy was not human but second to none..

And the thumbnail photo atop this video is Dan Gurney . . .

Without a doubt, Jim Clark set records which are unbeaten to this day, which to me demonstrates his amazing ability. He could win driving any kind of racing car. He is in my opinion the greatest ever driver with superb talent to ever sit in a formula one car. Unlike Shumacher, Senna and Verstappen he never had to try and push driver's off the track to win, because he was always so far ahead of his rivals. Senna thought he was the greatest ever too.

And all he had for driver 'aids' were steering wheel.clutch and gear lever!

A cette époque , il pilotait toutes sortes de voitures , c est ça la classe .

Despite living in the cemetery for over 50 years he still has records in his name! in my opinion Ayrton Senna is the greatest driver and Clark is the best, both have different qualities but if they both were on the grid with same cars I'm certain Clark would win.

this man was underrated

Why does the thumbnail show Dan Gurney?

Gurney in the picture. Not Clark

Clark could have won the '63 Indy 500 if Lotus had just run the Ford engine as they received it with the Hilborn fuel injection. But the lazy-ass lotus mechanics, too confused to pick up a phone and call Ford for info on the Hilborn system replaced it with Weber carbs-inmates running the asylum. If Lotus had bothered to take the 45 min to learn how to use the Hilborn with it's extra hp, Clark would have lap lead instead of being half a lap down at the end of the race. '64 again, Lotus snatch's defeat from the jaws of victory when Chapman makes the crazy tire decision. In '65, Lotus manages to get out of it's own way, with a Hilborn injected Ford motor and Firestone tires, Clark does what he could have done the last 2 years, win the Indy 500.

What a lot of nonsense! The 63' pushrod Ford V8's NEVER had Hilborn injection. And of course it was not the carburation that limited the engines power. It's that these stock engines were too fragile to survive the revs needed to make your mythical extra horsepower.

Given that he's been dead since 1968 it's unlikely isn't it? And even if he wasn't, given he's a multiple World Champion, Indy 500 winner, multiple Tasman Champion, BTCC Champion, Sports Car and Rally ace who is still considered by many to be the greatest racing driver who drew breath . . . whilst you're (and let's be fair to you here) . . . an utter ****, I doubt you'd make his notice. He still would be polite enough though not to comment "Never heard of him" on a Documentary about you though. Because only ****s do that. (That is assuming they ever made one about you . . .
