Great great video i have this on betamax ! . if you have the other one produced on the same year, please upload it ...name : a decade of F1 . 1970 -1980
Also the narrators of that era were real fun to listen to - 4:33 "Villeneuve had the nose lifted of his car when he and Clay Regazzoni claimed the exact same portion of the road at the exact same time" :)
@RealRacer2442 It was a weak excuse. He did not complain about that when he drove a Mclaren-Ford M24/26 in 1976 and 1977. It was not different than. Big difference: James was driving a Wolf-Ford in 1979 and was not able to achieve anything with it. It was simply a bad car. (but I guarentee that Gilles Villeneuve would have forced better results out of that car than James did). It has allways been like that!!! James simply lacked the motivation of a younger driver to try to improve a bad car.
@Skull4Scavenger Thanks for the explaination. It never made any sense what James said in the interview. With that explained, it seems much more clear to me now.
@Skull4Scavenger Postlethwaite, who designed the Wolf, said Hunt was lazy and could have got more out of the car had he tried harder...Hunt did have that idle streak in him, especially after 76
This was the TRUE Formula 1 !!! Which remained until 1993 and in the beginning of 1994. Unfortunately after the death of Roland Ratzenberger and the death of The Legend Ayrton Senna, it doesn´t exist anymore. Since then, all we have today, is just the name.

James Hunt's interview was quite interesting on what he said about the driver, not having control of the car and the car driving itself.
