I didn't want to double post this great vid I stumbled across on the Tube today.

The first 30 years of F1 Champions compressed into less than 10 minutes. But the footage is classic. Enjoy:D

And as an added bonus, courtesy of our friend Eir Loe (you can guess too Buddy;)), the eleventh Name That Corner!..

Buzzers ready?!!!

At 5:34 to 5:44 of the vid, NAME THAT CORNER!

There are 2 corners pictured in that 10 second span.

I assume the one you're looking for is the famous Monaco hairpin which has had several names over the years...Station, Lowes, Grand Hotel, etc...

Yeah the one I was referring to was at 5:40 exactly. Sorry 'bout that.

I had no idea what it was myself, but logically deduced that it was at least Monaco.:lol:

I'll just have to take your word for it. Great vid though:D;)

Thanks for the vid Salty :D. It's always fascinating to watch footage from the earlier years. The commentary is not really good, but that doesn't matter. I think Jackie Stewart did a few segments...

I kinda like the documentary style of commentary myself:D And I really get a kick out of the reallly old school commentary from the 50's:lol: Every word just runs into the other:lol:

Most of the video is narrated by Sterling Moss.
