@reading70 thats why italy should of never went on the axis side with hitler!!! not only libya but all of north africa..my favorite city is asmara eritrea...very unique city!!! built by italians and eritreans!!!
@pompei1968 Yes, it was a terrible mistake, as it was a terrible mistake to allow a "coup d'état" in our country in 1922, we should thank our former king.
The speed, the heat, the dust !! Fantastic. I think this footage is taken from the Shell History Of Motor Racing. I've often wondered about the sound of old footage such as this. Was it recorded seperately and post dubbed ? Or has it been added in subsequent years ?
منور يا حبوب و الله فيديو قمة في الروعة ... و للعلم فقط هذه اول حلبة سباق سيارات في افريقيا و العالم العربي.... عاشت ليبيا و هلها و عاش احفاد عمر المختار.... ربي يحفظ ليبيا و هلها و يحفظ جميع المسلمين... مع تحياتي....
Fantastic video..I'd heard about the Tripoli GP, but never seen any video or even photos...just as I'd imagined it...palm trees, dust...and those amazing machine. Also an interesting bit of political & sporting history too. Fascinating!
The question is where did you get the magnificent video? Ive been always looking for such a live broadcasting of Tripoli Grand. I remember my all old relatives in Suk El-Guima talking about it and seeing it now, its absolutely brilliant to watch and see how Tripoli had its place in Formula one calendar.
Hi my friend, remember in that period there were Italians in Libya with our friend Mussolini. I think not a good period to stay in that place. Italians done a lot of bad things in Libya, but something of good too. And that few good things then had been cancelled from Libians.
