Best commentator ever in F1, said it how it was, RIP James, we fans miss you.
I love how direct he was
James Hunt is so beautiful and charming, it seems people were helplessly drawn to his charismatic personality. I wish I lived during that era... I wouldn't of minded being another notch in his belt!!!
I'd pay good money to be another notch in his belt...
Hes a real guy. No bs wish more people spoke like this.
i agree wholeheartedly ..HE WOULD BE FIRED IN THE 1st 3 minutes of a tv career today .. what a sad world we have wrought hell in Britain your 1st amendment is already gone & we r fast behind.
@@stephenchristian5739 sir this is a taco bell

His father was a stock broker Wallis Hunt
Fantastic interviewer. Flawless professionalism!
You’re right, he died too soon. He was a perfect person to go with Murray Walker in the commentary box.
Watched him cross the finish line at Nurburg Ring in 76, hands in the air.
You are so lucky 🍀
Great driver. And he was one my favorite sports announcers in any sport. He was entertaining as hell to listen to along with Murray Walker.
He died when I was very young, but James Hunt is my favorite F1 personality of all time.
This interview should be shown to everyone in High school before Graduation!! So much information about life and how to approach it. 🙏💪
the interviewer is pretty decent and allows him to talk with barely an interruption and excellent Qs.
could anyone be more open, sincere and truthful? Admired by Niki...praise doent get much higher :) Both highly missed - such a great era
what a lovely chap...very philosophical approach
He’s a legend.
Bill Wignore doing a fine job at not blowing smoke up his arse, excellent interviewer, got exactly what we wanted from Hunt, radical honesty!
While attending the 1986 Mexican F1 Grand Prix at the Autodromo Hermans Rodriguez, I was walking down pit lane and there was James Hunt sitting down on the pit wall with Murray Walker smoking a cigarette barefooted.......😀 He gladly gave me his time to talk. He is hands down, the coolest, most laid back and friendly F1 champion I ever had the privilege to meet.
James so well spoken & articulate
didn't pull punches sit on the fence
& what a fabulous hairdo
Excellent movie rush totally loved the movie and I still watch again and again
Legend has it the interviewer is still asking James about dying.
I know! How many times does he keep saying that ?!!
I miss this man in F1 a great deal.
What a great guy.
Died too young, occasionally saw him Teeing off at Sunningdale golf course
He was absolutely gorgeous.
No homo?
he talks about the inept trackside officials at zandvoort in 1971 , they must of still been there when roger williamson had his accident there in 1973
Yep. they were a bunch of cowardly idiots. Literally let him burn to death and stood by watching it was absolutely disgusting
@@arjunmehta.4528 The problem was the fact that they had no fireproof clothing, they were just wearing their own clothes they'd left home with that morning.
@@andyelliott8027 yes, ma gli estintori dovevano metterli in funzione, invece ha dovuto pensarci Purley
One and only James.
What a ladies man. He had the T-shirt: "Sex. Breakfast of champions."
British Sporting Hero and legend of F1
He Autographed my James Hunt poster in the pits at Mosport Canada. James that is not the quirky interviewer.
damn i want more! JH the real mcqueen at f1
Is this car gonna catch fire? Dunno shall we have a cigarette while we figure it out!? 🔥🤣
RIP James.
Interviewer oddly reminds me of Mel Smith. And now I can't unsee Mel Smith as the interviewer.
The interviewer is completely obsessed with death. Weird line of questioning.
Yeah I've noticed that as well...creepy much
th-cam.com/video/xOVQPtuKRs4/w-d-xo.html
Well I mean, the 60s and 70s were incredibly deadly times in Formula 1 and Motorsport overall so I understand why the questions were warranted but that dude’s vibe is definitely pretty off-putting.
What a dumbass thread
Death in racing was way different then.
James the optimist and niki the realist 😔
the educated english speak so beautifully...
@Really? Well! especially not since the 'ghettofication' of your language...
Im in the middle of a 600 page biography on james. Its so in depth and interesting
I can see why we've never seen this 'interviewer' again?
why?is it because the edgy questions lmao
Would have made a very fine James Bond following his retirement from motor racing.
Hail James Hunt. Rip
JH reminds me a bit of George Russel. Very measured and intelligent.
A real man, full of masculinity.
Hunt talks about his career to Felipe Massa
Micheal Fassbender reminds me of him.
He says he needs more home life. Well nowadays no one working in F1 has a home life.
A most unusual interview.
Wigmore seems almost to want to ask whether Hunt is surprised he is still alive.
I may be wrong, but this sounds like a slightly creepy fellow who is a stranger to danger and risk trying to get some sort of vicarious buzz out of a sensation that is quite alien to him.
One way or another, Hunt comes across as clever and insightful and the interviewer does not.
Hunts dead now bwahhahahah.
@@bulletproofguy5112 WTF go back to school idiot
@@bulletproofguy5112 Kiddo grow up and stop being childish!
Wow. Intelligent gent.
Dude was 28 here, jesus.
First time saw this interview.
Nowadays racing car and sponsorship name "End racism"
Remind me of a very old person saying a logic "first do then think over it"
Won't tell what reply was given by me.
Smart man
He’s only 28 here.. grazy
looks 40
@@joys8634 and yet he still looks better than you
What year was this interview?
1976
The actor and director from "Rush" didn't get Hunt at all.
1:45 The-"Graham Hill situation"... What exactly was the -"Graham Hill situation"?! Hill, contrary to Hunt himself, was one of the most accomplished racing drivers in history, and most likely the only driver, ever in history to win the "quadruple crown", that is, The F1 title (twice), Monte Carlo (5 times) the Indy 500, and the 24 hours of Le Mans. Hill, besides being having more longevity than any F1 driver in history, at a time racers died regularly, set up his own team, was a gentleman, was a highly articulated man, a charmant, and was a very special person whom James Hunt (o so lucky he was) should have demonstrated a lot more respect for.
Hunt says nothing derogatory or underhanded there (quite the opposite): he's referring to the then unprecedented/unusual longevity Hill had as a racing driver. Even now, in the era of the Kimis and Alonsos, the man is still in 6th on the longest F1 careers list. He started at the end of the 50s and drove well into the 70s, even when he was saddled with having to endure shitboxes at the back of the grid in the latter stages of his career.
@@Kris9kris Correct. Graham Hill had an exceptional c areer, unique even, but he stuck around too long and was not showing the competitiveness he should have.
10:00
The interviewer is very fixated on death.
A few questions about the danger and death of F1 would be fine. But this interviewer just dwells on it in a way that is inappropriate and redundant.
who is the interviewer?
Me.
@@bulletproofguy5112 Are you really Mr. Wigmore ? Are you a Englishman ?
@@bulletproofguy5112 I can't believe it
Goading goading death goading etc etc………
Hunt was a curious driver. If the car was good, he was very good. But if it needed work and development, he would lose interest. The accident - and subsequent death of Ronnie Peterson - which he was involved in, clearly affected him as he tried to get out of his Wolf contract for 1979 immediately afterwards, but Peter Warr insisted he stuck to it. He clearly got 'The Fear' and one you have that, you cannot be a racing driver. He was very enjoyable to listen to, though his factually incorrect diatribe against Riccardo Patrese soured what was a fascinating character.
This interviewer is hopeless and morbid AF.
No 'politically correct' bull shit 👍
hunt > senna > verstappen
Prost greater than them all.
