Synopsis:: Show moreShow less
This important new series, narrated by Sir Stirling Moss, recalls the real personalities of an amazing era, the men whose antics on and off the track made them heroes to millions - and not always just to race fans. Created by Brunswick Films, which was behind the 1970-79 Grand Prix Collection, each video profiles a racing great, with action footage and period interviews from the Brunswick archive which reveal why these names still cause excitement today. They are not detailed life stories, but celebrations of the driving skills and colourful characters which defined a motor racing era. This video focuses on Clay Regazzoni.
Although never World Champion, Regazzoni was a colourful, flamboyant character whose name remains one of the most evocative. A favourite with fans, especially during his two spells with Ferrari, for his all or nothing approach, he was never far from a scrap or spin. Dramatic action footage and archive interviews recall some of the amazing highlights of career which gave Williams its first Grand Prix win and saw Regazzoni become one of the few drivers to be fired and re-hired by Enzo Ferrari.
