Jim Clark BBC documentary
 

About an hour. Maybe some of our younger board members never heard of him?

Copyright claim. Ooops.

What service? YouTube, etc.?

The display I get (iPad, Aloha browser) is “This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Mark Stewart Productions”

You need to watch this on a streaming service. IDK if they are all done by Mark Stewart, but there are videos of Wolfgang Von Trips and a plethora of others.

If you are into F1 none of the below is news. For me, I just now saw Richard Hammond say Clark was the greatest ever and know most say Fangio or Schumacher are, so I did some digging.

Jim Clark was #1 in the 60's as I'm sure the original video clarified. Jackie Stewart was a close second but lead the 70's.

Here's the top seven according to the article below:

The great ones mentioned above got there by surviving as well as being excellent drivers, Clark being the exception. A lot of brilliant drivers didn't live long enough to join the club.

Damn...sorry the biography documentary no longer available.

Here's a Ford bit on one of his many driving victories...Clark won the '65 Indy 500...

My opinion of course, but Jimmy Clark deserves to be in any conversation on who is the GOAT of racing drivers...
