1980s F1s driven HARD @ Spa

Onboard Footage | 2024 Spa Six Hours - Masters Racing Legends

Started P6/26 with a competitive grid, finished P2. The car driven is a 1982 ex-Riccardo Patrese Brabham BT49D.
The clutch failed on the outlap—surprisingly, the Brabham still performed well without it. I just had to be cautious with the unsettling downshifts due to no heel-toe.

Recorded with a Cambox V4 Pro.

They were racing like it was for the 1980s championship 😮
That was the hardest vintage race I've ever seen.

These gentlemen have HUGE balls.

I can only take my hat off.

Ah the good old days when your feet and head were the main part of the crash structure

Helmet cam like this is so much better than the in helmet camera we get in F1.

This is as close to the real thing as I will ever get. Possibly the greatest video on YouTube, ever.

[jaakkokoskinen]

I would 100% watch this over modern F1 any day.

As a retired club road racer, 30 years in Porsche 911's, this was as real as it gets. My head is flooded with memories of battles exactly like this.
Absolutely love the helmet cam!
Thank you very much for sharing.

That guy in yellow is a goddamn menace! No idea of braking zones, cutting corners, bits flying off his car.

You'd been thinking that this is some VR gameplay in a lobby full of sweats, but in fact this is actual hard racing. 😮

I LOVE how at around 4:21 you can hear the sound of the other car's engine get really loud as you are near it for a few moments. This was proper full on racing, brave and talented drivers all of you.

God, what a beautiful race track, beautiful soundtrack, and beautiful cars. Thanks so much for posting. 👍🏼

[Illuminacent]

Damn, these Assetto Corsa mods getting ridiculously realistic. Jokes aside awesome driving and footage :)

Watched this last night at 1am before going to bed and thought it was clickbait. I literally stood in front of my TV for the whole video with a smile that got bigger and bigger. I don't know who you are, but you drove that car perfectly. I loved how everyone in this video was actually driving hard but fair. I hope you upload more videos like this, it is more exciting than watching F1 currently! Hats off.

Balls of steel. Kudos sir, that's some top quality racing.

[Ticklestein]

Thinking this is a sim because of the thumbnail makes for a very very **very** pleasant surprise

[andrewpolasek]

The raw sound is beyond savage. Gotta love real gauges with the lcd screen tacked on top.

[Bandicoot]

Ah, the 80's and 90's F1 era are the best! That's the genuine racing spirit!

[StijnLampo]

Damn, every time you took Eau Rouge I held my breath! And I shook my head multiple times in disbelief when you were at top speed.
This is SO MUCH MORE SPECTACULAR than modern F1 cars!
I love this! 🤩😍🤤

Beautiful. They actually had to lift in corners and slipstream deserved its name. And the noise ... fantastic footage and well driven.
