Jackie Stewart Onboard Camera Monaco

[SlyDog1314]

Makes me extremely proud to be Scottish when you look at how well all Scots have done in F1. DiResta's going to become F1 champion one day. Just a shame Coulthard came along at the same time as Schumacher.

[TifosiAlonso]

Incredible car control, Jackie is a legend. One of the kings of Monaco in my opinion.

[caseyiso]

This is real racing!!!

[EvilCrewMember]

lol are we hearing the sounds of both engines? f..k me

[bandman232]

So much better than pussies like Vettel, who can only win a race if he's on pole. Stewart could win driving with one hand and starting from the rear. That's why he's my hero!. P.S. I'm an American f1 fan, but the purists piss me off. Leave oval racing alone, because I sure as hell can't do it.

[KKZReset11]

@bandman232 You're an American F1 fan? I would never have guessed given your clueless stupidity.

[Vikruntasas]

Look how early they brake...

[robert140602]

Kids driving go karts today,would beat this tit hands down,scotch arsehole,lol.

He would be a corpse on the first corner driving todays cars....Flame now,pls,lmao.

[doubts]

@robert140602 todays kids would have to learn how to use 3 pedals properly if they got in this car. And.. If they went way back to 1936 before f1, the cars had nearly 600hp. sideways at 150mph on skinny tyres.Almost 200mph down long straights. No seat belt. All the drivers of the past wold be just fine in a modern f1 car [with a bit of neck training]

[Bauermayers]

@doubts don't feed the trolls dude, that's exactly what they want.

[dannyownsu3]

@robert140602 Actually matey he has driven some modern f1 cars and has done pretty well driving them considering his age. And i would love to see you jump in a modern f1 car and not be a corpse by the first corner. But obviously you think your michael schumacher. :)

[robert140602]

@dannyownsu3 I wouldn't be able to drive a modern f1 car,there again Stewart probably can't lay bricks like me....lmao,you dick :)

[Jacksterblud]

"Faster than the bullet from a gun, he is faster than everyone". Sensational!

[d3roo]

I love how you can hear the car in front's every throttle movement :-)

[Alexandru017]

the driver really made the difference betwen winning and losing

today the drivers are only winning after the race...

[bigbuffler]

Hendy 100: What's this about GLOVES? I made NO comment about gloves. My comment was directed towards the stick-shift-and-clutch assembly. Also, read comments bt the immortal Ayrton Senna on p. 26 of the latest (May) Autosport.

Think of the number of shifts per lap at Monaco and you'll get the point of my comment.

BTW I have a Butler Cobra and drive the living Hell out of it, hours at a time. No gloves----probably because I'm a sailor and gardner----with no gloves.

[bigbuffler]

Interesting that, before the era of the sissy "paddle shifters", the heroes of the 1950's through the 1980's drove Monaco essentially one-handed!

[Hendy100]

@bigbuffler Their gloves would wear holes through them and they'd bleed and tear their hands apart.

[JONICRACHATLEITAO]

@bigbuffler Diferent times and tottaly diferent car. It would be next to impossible to drive a today´s F1 with a manual stick..

[xXdoctorXXGoNzOXx]

@WillHapgood2 I think you have no idea whatsoever what you are talking about. Drivers in F1 have been aware of the importance of physical fitness and athleticism long before the 'boys' of today.

[xXdoctorXXGoNzOXx]

@WillHapgood2 Jackie Stewart was a fitness fanatic, so was Francois Cevert, they knew they had to be in peak condition. Your an idiot to think these guys were out of shape in any way. MOST F1 drivers were in fantastic shape. Better get more informed before you start writing and seem like an idiot. I will put Lewis Hamilton in the ring with a 20 year old Jackie Stewart, and put all my packet on Stewart, period.....

[ayrtonsennathebest]

One think that might be missing form F1 that people absolutely miss is the "raw-ness" of the cars. That ferocity and unpredictability (F1 is still a bit unpredictable, Seb Vettel-world champion) that it had especially from the drivers. I mean you don't see Lewis diving in a corner just to stop a rival like Senna and Prost. Still it seems modern F1 cars are too tame but it's still a brilliant sport. I just hate it when they cover up the sounds of the engines in videos (Tina Turner? no thanks)

[MrInspiredOne]

I love RACING!!! Can't believe there's one person that dislikes this video, what the hell is wrong with you?

[WillHapgood2]

The driver's from then may have a certain charm loved by everyone, but they are not better drivers. Today's driver would destroy the old folk. Today's driver are proper professional athletes.

[cosmicdingo]

Agree w/Slav, how do they avoid shunt in the tunnel?

[shimeluchin]

@cosmicdingo well it seems completly dark on footage, in real life there is enough life coming trough into the tunnel

[Scope951]

look at how "dangerously" open that cockpit it

[Menschenzkind]

@Scope951

When I see this cars in action, I always wonder that anyone survived this times of racing... ;-)

[hugolasarthe1984]

AMAZING!!!!

[Slavianatore]

You cant see shit in the tunnel!!

[Kikujirosan]

awesome video, hearing the real sounds of the engine makes it that much better.

[Jelsick]

Much less of a chichane after the tunnel than now.  Pardon the spelling.

[repeatedjellyfish]

Insane driving, to the limit. I loved watching it thanks.

[canibhal]

the engine sound is amazing the small engine chokes today do not feel it anymore

[andriusssska]

It is 1978 Tyrell, And how did someone said, Jackie retired in 1973

[foxybrauneiser]

Wow!!!....and thanks! Its the best I think.....without blabla ! Best Sound in deed when he climbs up ...unbelivebel!

[flybywir]

Not getting close enough to the barriers/armco to be getting the most out of that car Jackie!!.............See "Senna Monaco in car camera 1987"................

[paulomor]

Lap time was about 1:37. This year, Button was the pole making less then 1:15. It's all about aerodynamics!

[TiagoWakabayashi]

i alwaysgot surprise: how they get to driver inside that tunnel?

[Holden308]

@TiagoWakabayashi Its nowhere near as dark in there as the camera shows it to be. There are lights in there which allows not only the drivers but TV camera's to see. The video on the Tyrrell isn't set up for lighting so it appears dark.

[Ferrari312pb]

It's Monaco 1978 since the Tyrrell he's driving is from that year ( Depailler/Pironi ). Stewart took the Tyrrell for a spin for the film maker Alain Boisnard. I have a photo' of him rounding the hairpin with the body missing and a huge cine camera bolted to the engine !

[fformel11]

Monaco Stewart 1979

[craigSimons00]

This cant be Stewart. He retired from F1 at the end of 1973!

[craigSimons00]

No wait...I've meant one thing and said something completley different here, Lol. What I meant to say is that the year isn't 1979, as Jackie Stewart retired from F1 at the end of 1973. Thats what I meant! :)

[sookster54]

The lovely sound of the Cosworth V8, This is 72 or 73, the 70's probably had the most deaths in F1. Jackie is a great veteran driver that knows alot about F1 even today, but I put Jim Clark at #1 and Ayrton Senna at #2 as best drivers in history.

[weestuburns]

The sound, the lack of safety equipment onboard and around the track make this frighteningly exciting!

[Holden308]

@weestuburns Has Monaco really changed much? Fair enough, safety is hundreds times better in F1 now, but there are still guardrails around Monaco. Still little to no run-off areas. But since the cars aren't going anywhere near the speeds they were safely designed to go, danger to life and limb is somewhat reduced.

Seriously though, how narrow is this track? Still, its part of the charm.

[DonLduk]

@Holden308

I've been to monaco many times. The street is like a normal street. The front straight is the longest with 3 lanes, the rest is 2 lanes and Casino turn is the narrowest with 1.5 lane I would say.

[donbucho]

StewarD?

[MrNinjaFish]

F1 drivers of the 50s 60s 70s and 80s are by far much better people than the ones we have in F1 today.

[thisisgrey]

The whole look of mustache,basic technology and grainy footage is a million times cooler than today's annoying kids.

[Sunoco]

@MrNinjaFish This is so true. With less down force, but still incredibly powerful engines, the cars were incredibly hard to drive. Completely unforgiving andd requiring absolute precision.

[1991ooo]

@MrNinjaFish

i dont know about that but they were more mature indeed

[rafa281]

@MrNinjaFish especially when u think about drivers such as Alonso and Schumacher.

[TJD24tamebandkk]

@MrNinjaFish I don't think that Formula One drivers today have it any easier driving the car if that's what you mean. The cars are a lot faster and more sophisticated. To push them to the limit lap after lap requires a lot of stamina and strength due to the lateral G loads. But if you are talking about safety. Yes it is not so bad but the dangers are still very much there. Just that the consequences won't cost you your life if you screw it up.

[IKurtC]

@MrNinjaFish indeed before it was mostly engine power.. specially the first year of racing (not when F1 started but much before) it was all mechanich and the skill of drivers wa tested at maximum Thotle breaking shifting Clutch... lot of great men died doing what they love in the edge of speed

[FormulaOneFan4Eva]

@MrNinjaFish - rubbish...

[farley528]

To many fans who are young and a little young, and who are also very emotional, to them senna is the best of all time, that's what they think but to legendary drivers, it is not. To Jackie, the best of all time are obviously Fangio, Moss, Clark, Lauda, Prost and Schumacher. If your not contended, try reading some of his books.

[Rivelution]

Dont forget Gilles Villeneuve. That man was amazing behind the wheel.

[Anseller531]

He was insane,but he could never have strung a championship together.

[gcmc2]

Yes, that's right. I liked Giles as much as anyone but he was a nutcase. His own son says he was crazy. People who suggest he was the greatest haven't got a clue. He specialized in crashing and he is just nowhere in terms of formula 1 history. He only ever won 3 races ! Team managers didn't even rate him in the top three ! The old man thought he was something specilal for whatever reason, but in the final analysis he was not a great F1 driver. He had no discipline at all.

[1996kj]

he won way more than 3 races

[gcmc2]

Sorry, Giles won 6 races of course not 3 races. It's a well known statistic - but still not a great result for the time he was in F1 I don't know what made me say 3.  Maybe after a few ales !

[TuneViper]

schumacher came after senna?

[bloodysharkattack]

is this kirt?

[indelible721]

wow the chicane back then was nuts. no wonder they re-did it...

[terga1]

Senna is the best F1 driver EVER! Even Jackie Steward said so.

R.I.P.

[gcmc2]

No , he did not say that.

[terga1]

yes he did....do some researching idiot

[gcmc2]

He did not you little grunt. He once acknowledged him as the best driver of the modern era. His views on the "all time best driver" are well known. He says that he doesn't think there is one. I present fact, you present bullshit you stroker. Now get going down to the carwash or you'll be late for work again.

[farley528]

Heres another one, Berger once said that, "when schumacher arrived in F1 in '91, we've decided not to like him because he looks arrogant, but it was Senna who was able to distinguished that Schumacher was something special. Senna also said that with maturity and experience, this kid schumacher would be a threat." Berger said. So you see its already berger and senna who said, there's more to that! If you want you can ask team principal Eddie Jordan, on who's better, if senna or schumacher?

[stewsie100]

haha who cares if Jackie Steward says something, he never shuts up.

[farley528]

Stewart did not say that senna was the best. What Stewart said, "senna was a wonderfully fast and talented driver but he would always choose Prost, because Prost was the best technical driver of their era and there's more to formula one than just going fast." Thats what Stewart said. In fact Stewart would prefer Mike Schumacher than Senna because Schumacher is a complete driver and has superb car control while senna is just fast and aggressive but not a developer of racing cars.

[kimiovaalonso]

"senna is just fast and aggressive but not a developer of racing cars."

What?????? Firsty Schumi was just as aggressive as Senna; remember when he punted JV and Damon Hill on a number of occassions, he had the same 'do anything to win' mentalilty as Senna; both drivers could be described as being too ruthess. Secondly, if I had to name 2 drivers over history that were so dedicated to perfection and car development then it would be Senna and Schumi, remember Senna helped develop the Honda NSX

[plinkytx]

The Honda NSX. Yeah, what an amazing vehicle that was. Schumacher helped design the Enzo and the FXX.

[LanciaS4]

Its amazing to think that this vid was several years after his retirement, I reckon he could have won at least another championship, but he retired when he was at the height of his powers. :)

[primussucks]

looks like he had a fantastic setup on that car, no over or understeer! so smooth with his control also. gorgeous!

[erickonphoenix]

Awesome! I remember watching Stewart when I was a little kid. Thanks for posting.

[andreamovie]

Che classe!!! W il cambio manuale in F1

[REVs99]

yea but,the race was not somthing like  70 laps...back then it was a 130 lap race...

[darrylhart19]

the track is so much easier compared to todays

[2071979]

Apart from the lack of chicane after the tunnel the track in the footage is almost identical in layout to the modern Monaco.

[Slayer1989]

wtf? maybe somewhat easier but so much more dangerous. Men where men back in the F1 days

[sunshag1]

?? You need to work seriously on your motor racing.

[aure232]

But cars were much harder to drive and most other tracks were way longer, harder and much much more dangerous than nowadays tilkedromes and mickey mouse tracks...

[primussucks]

because you race it everyday don't you? fool. racing back then was dangerous, dusty tracks, kerbs, no downforce, no steering assists etc. if anything, today's track is harder!

[billlydark]

nice to hear those NA engines rumbling :)

[KingMatt292]

Awesome footage of the 3 time world champion

[stu22aus]

sounds brutal...I want an engine with wheels

[loreztaken]

Great footage! I worship Sir Stewart.

[metalgearsolid1238]

He must have balls of steel.

[Rosssmith21]

Sure this is a test? I had no idea they tested in Monaco? Bit strange to me..plenty of other tracks like paul ricard to test at.

[JujuZer0]

Well, this is a test made during the practice sessions for the race itself, of course they didn't open the whole track for Sir Jackie :)

Same thing for the Brands Hatch footage .. And maybe even for the Paul Ricard footage, but there I'm not sure at all ...

[therealredbyrd]

In response to my friend pibbley, I simply mistook this video as some race footage, so my mistake. Also, calling Sir Jackie and "old man" was a joke! Lighten up. And I've never been able to talk out of my arse, but would like to learn how.

But a big thanks to Hendy for posting this! Always nice to see a legend in action...

[psalmtone]

It's Jackie driving Depailler's Tyrell 008

-C

[therealredbyrd]

There's absolutely no way it could be 1978 - Sir Jackie retired in 1973, I believe, or within one or two years of that. He was an old man by '78!

[pibbley]

Really, shows how little you know about F1, it is 78 the test is well documented. Do some reasearch before talking out your arse. Stewart retired in 73 aged 34 , he then aged at the same rate as evryone else so was only 5 years older in 1978... doh

[ludwig100]

It's 1978.

[sloanienz]

1973 would be my guess....

[monkeypoo1]

Look at the point when they pass the car on the pit strait about 1 minute in. Theres no way this is 67. Yes, it probably is early to mid 70's.

[DancingSpiderman]

cool.

[5starsnitskymatch]

this can't be 1967, look at the cars - they have wings. it must be early 70s,
