    Great trailers, thanks so much for posting these! A great quote from Ron Howard, ".....the 70's, when sex was safe and racing was dangerous"-so true....I've been waiting a long time for this film to finally get made....been talked about for years.

    As F1 fans, we have had very few films that really captured the sport accurately(Grand Prix and Senna-although more of a documentary perhaps, come to mind).

    Ron Howard has the credentials to get this right, and I think he will have done his homework and do justice to this absolutely amazing story.

    Can't wait...

    This should be a good one, I went to the Glen from 1973 through 1977

    and it was a remarkable time for f-1 racing, so different from today.

    I could be mistaken, but wasn't it a Brazilian Tour Bus with Fittipaldi supporters there to see him wrap up the WDC?

    I remember the rising pillar of black smoke and the gut feeling that someone had a bad shunt on track. I've got loads of 35mm slides of the bus carnage but here's a great site with photos to jog the memories from the depths...

    THE BOG

    Use the left side menu for the photos.

    I was there in '76 slept in my 240Z during the rain on Saturday. Drove from California after getting transfer there from Hawaii. Got to race there in 2003 with SCCA on both tracks.

    I believe that you are correct on it being full of crazy Brazilians (thankfully
    they were not on it when they torched it). I vividly remember a new
    Corvette being burned the next year. And I still can't believe that no one
    was killed during those years, by that I mean that an owner of one of those
    cars didn't kill the creeps that were burning them!

    There's a good interview of Howard and Lauda at the Nurburgring here. Today Show, from this morning I think, maybe yesterday.
