Gilles tyres must have been completely shot...on the thirtieth anniversary of his death...I salute him....more balls than a pool table.

[Scott Dougall]

a moment of brilliance - beautiful to see...

the beauty of this sequence is the understanding of the turbo vrs the normally aspirated engine advantages and disadvantages. the tire situation, the braking, and the toughness of these cars only added to this battle for second place. i wonder if any of the modern day drivers could have done this without wrecking? im certain that modern day cars could not have taken the abuse. incredible sequence.

These two were men...not the pansies that are driving F1 today. I think that Gilles gives Arnoux a salute after the finish line.

More like, he had more balls than a ball factory.

Lewis does.

Who cares if he had no title ? To me he is a F1 grandmaster, in my head he's the 20 times world champion, better than Stewart, Senna, Prost and Vettel altogether. The only driver that could probably match is skills was Francois Cevert.
