  • Still...they still should make cars out of magnesium! Magnesium, the material of the future!

  • Mike Hawthorn didn't raise his hand indicating he was going to pit which led Macklin to swerve around him at speed and come into the path of Levegh who had nowhere to go. This was Hawthorn's fault.

  • Sorry.... I had to lol

  • @orangejonny world's* ....

  • @goddamnedbush

    Look out everybody it's typo man!

    Offensively fixing the world one spelling mistake at the time...

  • @56BUICKRiviera Mike Hawthorn still too

  • @orangejonny mercedes, idiot.

  • I didn't realise the pits had no dividing wall from the straight & I feel sketchy changing a tyre on the side of the road! Crazy times

  • @uberkid100

    I think only the army used rescue helicopters in 1955. They were first used in the Korean War of 1950-1953.

    I don't think ANY hospital in Europe at the time used rescue helicopters. Those 1950's helicopters were notoriously expensive to operate.

  • Mercedes engine was a monster.
