Video highlights showing outtakes and the funny side of Formula One during the 1987 season:

-Murray Walker pokes fun at Alboreto's inability to beat whoever his teammate is, after Berger starts off beating him in the first race of the year in Brazil
-A typical Murrayism, admitting he can't tell his front from his rear as Mansell blows his left rear tire in Brazil
-Berger blows his engine at Spa and fogs up the pits
-Alliot spins off and nearly takes out Prost at Spa (a prelude to James' Hunt's criticism later)
-Senna sprays the royal family with champagne after winning at Monaco for the first time
-Senna gets cheeky and waves to the crowd in Detroit, and David Hobbs shares a story about Senna's escapades after winning in Monaco
-Berger fools around in the cockpit in Britain and De Cesaris sticks his fingers in his ears, fitting his earplugs while being watched by the camera
-Murray reflects on the bad luck of the camera on Nakajima's car at Silverstone, limiting the amount of times we get to see shots from it (also a prelude for later on in the season and Murray's own luck when calling to see from the camera)
-Piquet patiently sits on the podium waiting for Mansell after Nigel beats him to the victory in Britain in dramatic fashion
-Mansell sits in his Williams wearing his headwear without his helmet, looking a bit like a Mexican wrestler
-The McLaren jackman slips up and gets the jack stuck at the front of the car, delaying Prost in Germany
-Alliot shows more of his spinning expertise and a brilliant recovery, explained by James Hunt as due to his practice from spinning all the time
-The third time's the charm in Austria after two failed starts, the second worse than the first
-Mansell bangs his head on a bridge after winning in Austria, showing his pain on the podium and a funny interview with the classic Murray Walker
-Murray shows off his bad luck when mentioning the camera on Nakajima's car and how he never gets to see what he wants, during the Spanish Grand Prix
-Murray Walker and Satoru Nakajima exchange gifts in Japan in lieu of Nakajima's bad luck with the camera on his car all season (and also Murray's own misfortune with the camera on live TV)
-Senna scares the aggressive flag waver in Australia after finishing second
-Berger takes off his helmet in the cockpit and gives De Cesaris a lift back to the pits after winning the last race of the year in Australia
