You just wouldn’t get that now in an f1 team,Jackie had nothing else to prove so he took Cevert under his wing.Master and apprentice.Jackie was never the same after Cevert died.He said so in his autobiography.He was grooming him to be World Champion
A very handsome man, young and full of life. I know the cliched “He died doing what he loved”....but so sad when you think of what he might have accomplished along with racing.....a family, children. RIP Francois Cevert.
Agree could turn any hetrosexual man into fancing him, beautiful indeed and horrible this beautiful soul died young and horrible death; he would easily won 1-2 WDC (becoming France's first F1 WDC) and wondering what his life would be post F1.
The relationship between Jackie Stewart and Francois Cevert was very special. It was so sad when he died in practice at Watkins Glen. In the movie ‘Rush’ there is scene towards the beginning of James Hunt’s F1 career when a car crashes in practice. That was Francois. It’s still so sad for me.
leewat motor racing was just so dangerous back then. Francois was killed in such an absolutely horrific manner. His death is still the worst I've ever heard of.
The Tyrrell 007 was a good car that Schekter took to two wins and 4 podiums, so with that I have no doubt Cevert could have won the 1974 title. Sad all around.
Os antigos deuses gregos ficavam enciumados, quando um mortal lhes assemelhava, seja em beleza, ou força, Cevert era um destes, não se pode ser assim impunimente, o destino o levou cedo demais.
His was a tragic, terrible death,...but F1 back in the day was a brutal sport, at times like Russian roulette, ...but following the cevert tragedy, his friend and co driver Jackie Stewart pushed hard for changes in regulations and better driver safety , and he helped make it the much safer sport it is today
If only François had survived to compete in the ‘74 season and beyond; with his talent, and Sir Jackie’s guidance, my God. He might have even ultimately turned out to be a better driver than Jim Clark.
What are the most destructive terrible accidents in formula 1 history... For many many reasons... When Jackie Stewart walked up to the accident he could see that Francois had literally been ripped in half... His legs and half his torso were laying in the grass, with his upper half, still in the wreckage... I only speak these details to speak of the severity of the accident in the horribleness of it... And could you imagine how Jackie must have felt in that moment?... Seeing his best friend the guy he had just talked to moments before now in the state?... Freaking horrible...
He die at my 17 th birthday! A tragic destiny! Him and Clay Regazzoni of Ferrari they was my idols ! I was sure the next year in 1974 he became world champion ! But sorry the fate was so cruel with him! .RIP Francois !🙏❤

io lo conoscevo da ragazza . per qualche tempo siamo stati assieme dopo la sua morte ho tentato il suicidio . aveva gli occhi colore del mare profondo .sayonara
apart from being a rare document about a tragically lost potential champion, this also is a testament of jackie stewarts sportsmanship.
But he comes across as a bit bitter towards Lewis Hamilton who is also a fantastic competitor.
@@MagicAyrtonforever Wrong answer - maybe to a different post. Above is an interview with François Cevert in 1970 when Hamilton wasn't even borne?
@@HarryHunterx ya- laughable
You just wouldn’t get that now in an f1 team,Jackie had nothing else to prove so he took Cevert under his wing.Master and apprentice.Jackie was never the same after Cevert died.He said so in his autobiography.He was grooming him to be World Champion
@@MagicAyrtonforever Stewart only tell truth, H is overrated 90% of his victories are merit of a far superior car.
A very handsome man, young and full of life. I know the cliched “He died doing what he loved”....but so sad when you think of what he might have accomplished along with racing.....a family, children. RIP Francois Cevert.
Rip what a handsome & cool guy
Rest in peace, François. You were absolutely right when you said - 'driving a F-1, one can't make mistakes'.
This man was destined for greatness
Number 1 , NO doubt !!!
I've never seen a better looking racing driver, rest in peace Mr. Cevert.
Agree could turn any hetrosexual man into fancing him, beautiful indeed and horrible this beautiful soul died young and horrible death; he would easily won 1-2 WDC (becoming France's first F1 WDC) and wondering what his life would be post F1.
Love his deep french voice
RIP Francois servet you will be sadly missed by millions of f1 fans who are always there to support your talent
He was almost like a movie stars interpretation of an F1 driver
His humility is amazing
Amazing and beautiful , unique interview! May he Rest In Peace!
What a talented young man...may he rest in Peace!🙏
I salute all these F1 drivers back in the day.You had to have balls of steel to drive them.
The relationship between Jackie Stewart and Francois Cevert was very special. It was so sad when he died in practice at Watkins Glen. In the movie ‘Rush’ there is scene towards the beginning of James Hunt’s F1 career when a car crashes in practice. That was Francois. It’s still so sad for me.
Once Jackie would have retired, nobody could have beat him. He was that special.

MAN, WHAT A GREAT INTERVIEW!
Thanks for this wonderful portrait of a word and a feeling : passion.
That was quite fascinating but sad as well. I only recently heard of this man. I never expected him to be so eloquent.
What a clever bloke! Taken from us far too soon... RIP
Rest easy Francois I’ll see you soon
“He did a lot of damage”- For sure Cevert had all the ladies
It's so haunting to hear him saying that "I should have been killed" :(
leewat motor racing was just so dangerous back then. Francois was killed in such an absolutely horrific manner. His death is still the worst I've ever heard of.
Paul McLauchlin His injury after the crash is definitely the worst in F1 history.
Paul McLauchlin cut in a half, right?
•Wic9KF8• Sadly yes :(
Sadly, so true ..
So beautiful personne what humility Great driver and Great play boy R.I.P. Great Champion ❤️🇫🇷
What a gem he was
I miss him so much!
grande campione....
If he had gone on, two thirds of the world would now be called Cevert.
LOL! even my cat
😄
Great find.
He was a perfect Frenchman. The other driver's didn't stand a chance with the ladies. Only his seconds.
With all the hoes.. Looks aren't everything for real women.
*_*drivers_** , not driver's.
@@MagicAyrtonforever He happened to be charming kind and humble as well, your jealousy and disdain are misplaced
Bullshit, they could all score if they really wanted to
@@annnee6818He was also close to Jackie, it was like they were either brothers when they were at home, it was sad to see him go.
The Tyrrell 007 was a good car that Schekter took to two wins and 4 podiums, so with that I have no doubt Cevert could have won the 1974 title. Sad all around.
he's quite picturesque
RIP Cevert
Little did he know that he was describing his future crash.
I didn't at all
Actually, he new more than he should... that story of clairvoyant might not have done him good :(
@@tuneplayme It's *_*knew_** , not new.
Hamsome and great driver
*_*Handsome_**

IA SER CAMPEÃO DO MUNDO
Ia mesmo
Cevert most likely wins the 76 Championship in a 6 wheel had he not died in that crash. Tragic loss for the sport.
F1 was glamorous back then, drivers had charisma, now in 2024 it's very sterile and quiet frankly boring
Si doué quel malheur sa disparition si précoce
A fortune teller told him he'd die before he was 30.

Hoy se cumplen 50 años de su muerte, pero su recuerdo sigue vivo en mi corazón. ❤
... and then you see interviews of nowadays F1 drivers being just flat and anonymous....
He looks hot and SOUNDS hot. Why did he have to die so soon? 😫😭
I ain't gay but this man was handsome and clever. Rest in peace champion...
Looks like he's related to Andre the Giant.

Davvero? Doveva essere davvero un grande gentiluomo oltre che un pilota fenomenale! :(
come era caratterialmente??
Ontem fez 50 anos que ele morreu
grandisimo piloto.
