    Jackie Stewart Explains the Challenges of Nordschleife

    Just found this video where Jackie Stewart guides us through some sections of the N?rburgring Nordschleife with great onboard F1 shots.

    "The faster you drive around the Ring - the less you know. And maybe that's the best thing to do."

    Cooking mc's like a pound of bacon.

    That is a really great video, gives a great impression of just how fast and dangerous the old ring actually was.

    And just to clarify, that's not Stewart driving. It's New Zealander Howden Ganley, practicing for the 1973 German GP in a Frank Williams owned March. For reasons unknown he did not start the race.

    Thanks for the clip DriverDB. What you can also see from it is how close the rock wall is to the track, and thus there is no room for error.

    Talk about changing times
