Fangio vs Brabham, 1978

Here is an extremely memorable piece of footage where 5-time world champion, Juan Manuel Fangio, aged 66, races against Jack Brabham. The 4 lap 'demonstration' was run after the Australian Grand Prix at Sandown in 1978. With Fangio in his W196 Mercedes Benz and Brabham in his Repco Brabham, a car 12 years newer than Fangio's.
An awesome exhibition of great racing cars, pushed to their limit against one another, a special clip.

@puntano85 ok, i was referring to the bullshit in your whole post. i was talking about when drivers started F1 anyway, in which case fangio did start in his 30s

[puntano85]

@tangywangyify and another thing, fangio didn't start at his 30s, he was a mechaninc and started driving really young in argentina, driving long distance endurance and speed open roads races, really man learn something about this guys, they were tough and strong
