JIM CLARK - By far the greatest driver ever - no doubt. He is and was the Best of the Best. No driver in history until today was so superior as Clark. This man is the Olymp of driving - the Michelangelo of racing - a dynamic art at the highest level. So smooth, so precise, so fast....simply out of this world. One, who won in Spa by 5 minutes (!) in monsoon rain...One, who takes back a complete lap in Monza and back into the lead... One, who took pole on the original 22,8 km Nürburgring track by 9 (!) seconds and more....One who won Indy by 2 whole (!) laps...For eternity and by lightyears unmatched in the sport. That`s just four examples of his unique genius...
I began following the sport exactly one year later, as soon as I learned to read, leafing through an automotive magazine my father subscribed to. Watching this makes me be more certain than ever that the mid sixties, despite the carnage, were the golden years of F1. Later, as a Brazilian teenager, I was fortunate to have closely followed the ascension of the fascinating group of Brazilian drivers from 1970 thru 2017.
Incredible video & audio of this race. It's nice to hear the throttle blips coming in & out of the corners. Btw, I love the beginning shots when the drivers were on the dummy grid. Clark, Stewart, Hill & Surtees - It reminded me of the opening scene of the movie Grand Prix.
Very nice coverage of the German GP in 1965, despite the Ring's lenght (23 km). It is a Ampex and not a videograph, I like watching original videotapes from the 60s.
Some folks say t More good drivers are in F1 today but these 1.5 litre fields had some fine talent. Clark was just head and shoulders above the rest. We need a Track of Dreams movie
More good drivers today? It is a joke? Today electronics is killing the pilot. They have little buttons to control everything. They don't even have a clutch pedal anymore, and many don't even know mechanics anymore. They can't even tell the engineer what to adjust on the car because a computer does it for them. More good drivers today? Please, think a bit.
Hard to believe that Clark won only once here at the Nürburgring. But at least he conquered Spa 4x and won the British GP 5 times in an incredible short eight years span of F1 racing.

I so enjoyed this era of F1. So much better than the crap now. So many great drivers, and cars. I don't even bother to watch the current F1. Same with Le Mans. How boring, all the cars look the same, no diversity. It was so interesting to watch and read about an Austin Healy Sprite running on the same track as a Porsche 908. The great drivers, the beautiful cars not covered in ads. It was grand.
It would be very entertaining, to see ONLY one of these modern "so-called" Racingdrivers (2020's), driving these 1960's F1-Cars and pushing them to the very Limit, in the manner of Clark, Rindt, Hill, Stewart or Brabham.... (*Irony OFF*) 😅 😅
@Denni Weifenbach . . . the cars back in the 1960s were more of a test of a driver's talent than that of a design engineer for the car. Nowadays, the best driver in the field can be a back-marker due to a few adjustments in the car. I didn't mind the technological advances with the F1 cars in the 1970s; but it went overboard over the past 30 years.
Imagine if a couple of hundred of us could travel back in time and record an entire race, when we return all the video can be edited to make a great video.

I’d help ya film it, but if was transferred into the 1960s I would never want to come back, unless… knowing my luck I would end up in Vietnam… But otherwise I would have to stay and enjoy this addiction of mine from the early 1960s to 1989.
@ Nurburgring in Summer 1961: The 19 year old Jochen Rindt visits this famous "Eiffel-Race_Track" for the first time... It was reported from his friend Helmut Marko, that Rindt made his decision to become a professionell racingdriver, after having watched the Ferrari's in Qualifying practice. @ nurburgring 1963: 21year old Rookie Jochen Rindt crashed badly with his Formula Junior Cooper, fortunately taking no bad injuries. @ nurburgring 1965: Rindt participated with his "3rd-Class" - Cooper Climax in the (very rainy!) German Formua 1 GP, finishing on the excellent 4th place. @ nurburgring 1966: (Formula 2) Rindt takes the victory in his first RAINY F 2 Race on the Eiffel Track. @ nurburgring 1966: (Formula 1) 3rd Place - as usual - in the very rainy German Grand Prix (Cooper Maserati). @ nurburgring 1967: Rindt takes another Win in the Formula-2-Race (Winkelmann-Brabham Repco BT-23). @ nurburgring 1968: 3rd place in the rainy german F1 Grand prix for Jochen (Brabham Repco). @ nurburgring 1970: (Formula 2) 3rd Victory in the "ADAC-Eiffel" - Race of Germany (Lotus-Ford /Jochen Rindt Racing).
I find the lack of safety counsciousness disturbing. Did the organizers regard the drivers as disposable cannon fodder or were people just braindead in the 1960s? (To be fair, they didn't seem to care much about spectators either.)
In war the cheapest commodity is life. Death was part of life for everyone. Motor racing drivers were like the new fighter pilots. Graham Hill was a perfect example, with his mustache and brylcreamed hair, he looked like a fighter pilot. Silverstone and Godwood were fighter bases and bored pilots would race each other around the perimeter roads that eventually became the racing track after the war. The danger in motor racing was a big attraction for drivers and spectators. There were no soft barriers around the track so if a car went off there was a high probability of serious injury, as I'm sure you realise. Because the danger attracted the crowds the race organisers weren't interested in making any changes. The drivers weren't seen as "disposable cannon fodder" they were aware of the danger and revelled in the thrill of it. No one was "brain dead" and you comment is an example of how different things were in the past. Everyone is so pampered now, they automatically expect their safety to be of paramount importance. Which is now the norm. It's why the younger generations can't even begin to understand how things were in the past. They're all pampered to such a degree that if any of them get hurt they immediately look to blame someone for their injury. Back in those days men were men and danger was part of the thrill of life. The drivers were the modern day Gladiators or Fighter pilots and they were there to thrill the crowds with their bravery and courage. Of course any death was a tragedy, but war, in which life is the cheapest commodity, was still fresh in people's minds. Your comments show that it's impossible for the younger generations to realise how lucky they are. They've grown up without any experince of war or, indeed, life in the army. Back then everyone had to spend two years in the armed forces. They were all acutely aware that they may be sent away to fight and give their lives in battle. They certainly weren't brain dead. They were incredibly brave.
@bakinek I'm glad you agree. In war the cheapest commodity is life. War had left people accustomed to death and although a tragedy, no one started screaming for more safety measures. Then Jackie Stewart started lobbying for them. And the organisers pushed back against him. But some of the drivers actually like the danger. It's part of the attraction. In 1996, at the Portuguese Grand Prix, you saw a good example. Jaques Villeneuve, one of the bravest, realised that Michael Schumacher wouldn't expect him to try and overtake on a long fast bend. It would mean taking him on the outside of the bend at very high speed. Jaques realised he could use the element of surprise. He intentionally had his car set up especially for it. When he did catch Schumacher by surprise and completed the move, everyone was staggered at his bravery. Not all drivers wanted the sport be absolutely safe. That could never be achieved anyway. But some drivers love the excitement and the risk. His father, Gilles, was renowned for his bravery. Some would say his insanity. Lol
In my opinion, back in the 1960's, we experienced REAL Racing!!! From the beginning of the 1990's on to the 2020's we only have overpaid BETA-CUCK-Racers with ugly cars and ridicoulous HALO.... INSANE!!! They literally KILLED the spirit of the sport. By the way... It would be very entertaining, to see ONLY ONE of these modern "so-called" Racingdrivers (Bottas, Verstappen jun., Hamilton, Schumacher jun.,...) , driving these 1960's F1-Cars and pushing them to the very Limit, in the manner of Clark, Rindt, Hill, Stewart or Brabham....ROFL 🤣 😅 😅
Those mid 60s cars were the best looking F1 cars. Iconic drivers. Vivid circuits. The Golden Age.

Beautiful how Jimmy Clark is using the throttle around corners under braking and out accelerate!.
Better with no commentary!! Thanks for sharing this.

Hill carried that mustache like a boss and Surtees was impressed with it 1:08

No, they're brain dead in 2020, with nearly every parameter of life rigidly controlled, or monitored.
In war the cheapest commodity is life. Death was part of life for everyone. Motor racing drivers were like the new fighter pilots. Graham Hill was a perfect example, with his mustache and brylcreamed hair, he looked like a fighter pilot.
