Notice the cover shot on the web page... "The 60s greatest F1 cars".

I've unfortunately never seen the magazine in Switzerland.  I pick it up
whenever I fly through England.

I don't see why it should cause any copyright problems. You're not
distributing copyrighted material (the original footage). With the CCM
flying camera you should be able to make most of the angles you need. I
think your only problem will be clipping. I tried a high shot of cars
going into the monaco tunnel but with any view other than straight on
the tunnel clips like mad.

I bought an almost complete set from 1962-1990 from an advert in the local
paper for 15 as I remember, it kept me engrossed for weeks...

In the event this is available at some of the mag racks of the larger
bookstores,  it will probably arrive here in about a month. That's
typical lag time I have  experienced in other "furrin" <g> magazines.
