@@RLRSwanson Nah it was actually quite a bit different - kerbs had been installed more than 1 metre away from the walls which made it narrower and hence slower at the same time, all the while making a mistake less costly by not having to die, just 'gently' hop across those kerbs. Also, it had actually been moved a lot further down the road in 1968 to another opening and so was at a completely different place to both this the original fast chicane and the current one. (Which was moved back up when they replaced the one used in the 1970s and 1980s.) No wonder there were no major accidents there after Bandini's death. The second option was much safer.

Yeah he also had wings on the car - a brand new innovation back then!

I really enjoyed this it reminded me of many hours spent on Grand Prix Legends. Your dramatic improvement with your throttle and brake inputs was really impressive and nursing those things is the key to quick laps in these old cars. As Jackie Stewart said “The quickest race drivers don’t look like they are going that fast, but it’s the smooth progressive run that delivers the real speed”.

An old police driving instructor friend of mine, who used to race 60's & 80 f2 cars, explained that many drivers of that time used to roll in neutral around a lot of slow corners to keep the revs up so they could slip into 3rd quite easily...which when you think about it, is absolutely fucking mental!

Jimmy - in historics you need more progressive steering inputs than you do with downforce.

@tylermcneil5239

you could see the change from commentary to focus, beastmode, well until that last corner, well done

Really shows how brave those guys were back then. Stewart, Hill, Brabham etc. The cars were becoming very powerful. Safety standards were still poor, and so many drivers died in the 60's and 70's. Kudos to Jackie Stewart for his campaign to vastly improve driver safety.

Amazing lap! Having tried this in a f2 car, I can appreciate the skill needed. Very interesting to see how bad the brakes on these cars are and the sudden acceleration from that V12! Also watching how you refined your piloting and began to find the racing line makes me want to try it as soon as I can!

Terrific video Jimmer. The more historic stuff, the better. That Matra sounds eargasmic too. It was great seeing how hard you had to work at the wheel without downforce, modern tyre and suspension compounds, and with a tetchy H-pattern. It really tested your car control and demonstrated that your skills are far in advance of the average gamer's. Please, continue these historic videos. Something like a Porsche 908 around Reims or the old Nurburgring would also be fabulous, or a Ferrari 250GTO around either track - in VR of course! PS.

@ShazenVideos

But not for todays safety regulations. There's a reason why the chicane after the tunnel has been added. Also the chicane at monza's finish line. That's because the FIA has defined how long and wide run-off areas have to be at certain speeds. The old chicane would need a huge run-off area on the left side of the track (which is not possible, because water and yachts). The first corner also have been narrowed so that the drivers aren't able to drive through that as fast - therefore removing the need for a run-off area on the left side there. Most of the curves on modern tracks have the function to slow down the cars just so that a run-off area can be spared on the parts where it's almost impossible to build them. You can look up any modern circuit and look at the corners and run-off areas, you'll understand why they're built the way they are.

@@ShazenVideos Agreed, if Monaco wasn't the crown jewel of the F1 calendar with such a rich history, I doubt it would have ever been approved to be added to the calendar if proposed as a new track these days. The old track was certainly wider and the cars were much smaller, but safety was completely non existent. Crashing into the harbour is actually a best case scenario if you did happen to lose control. Monaco today, as Jimmy said, is incredibly boring on race day (unless some rain spices things up), but quali is still incredibly fun, even if one team is dominant. But the current cars are too long and wide for Monaco, and seeing how FIA likes adding more and more street circuits to the calendar, I can't see this getting any better.

That lovely V12 sound 👍

As I recall from the Movie "Grand Prix", they had to use a manual "Stick" gear box. For the simulation to be genuine back in 1968, it would require the use of a stick shift. Just think how difficult it actually was, having to take one hand off the wheel at such high speeds. As powerful and fast as the new F1s are today , I can see how critical it is to have both hands on the wheel at all times. Nevertheless, the simulation does provides an opportunity to experience how thrilling it would be to drive a racing car, especially for those of us who have a need for speed.
