Hmm, based on the footage and the period, it wouldn't be Jo Schlesser would it? No...no, on second look the rear wing is far too large...and I'd hate to think they used a fatal crash for the video. My guess is that they staged it with some props. Great stuff!

I believe it's 1969 and 1970 footage.. I looked carefully at Jackie's car and when he had car #21 it was 69 and when it was #3 it was in 1970 :) Eric fluffypony wrote:

The BEST F1 racing song I can think of is by George Harrison.(yes the Beatle) I think it's called 'Faster' and it about Jackie Stewart. Actuall F1 start recorded at the beginning of the song. dave henrie "Marc Goldstein" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:v4kX5.26328$[email hidden]...

Great- thanks for the links! And who would think that Ken Tyrell would show up in a music video? Maybe Speedvision should run this a time or two. :-)

The picture disc for Harrison's single "Faster" shows a JPS Lotus and I'm pretty sure that its Peterson driving since it's the 6 car. picture disc: http://user.tninet.se/~pfs291o/fasterinfo.htm Then again, the disc on the left shows Stewart, G Hill, and a bunch of other racing greats.

I went to the above site, linked to the lyrics. Didn't find any specific mention of a single driver in the lyrics, although the 'master of going faster' line would tend to indicate a World Champion. But this was at the end of the lyrics, I don't know if it was included by George Harrison, or Dark Horse records, or the webmaster...but here is what was written at the bottom of the lyrics. Looks like we were all correct, at least partially... "Faster" is inspired by Jackie Stewart and Niki Lauda. Dedicated to the Entire Formula One Circus. Special thanks to Jody Scheckter, In memory of Ronnie Peterson. dave henrie
Uh, Speedvision usually reruns 'Formula 1 Saga' on Mondays before they replay the previous weekends' F1 race. As I recall from that show (I think!), the song was actually about Ronnie Petersen, and JYS appeared in the video as a limo driver for Harrison (how cool is that!). I will have to sort thru my archive of hundreds of unlabeled videos to confirm this, but that's my recollection, fwiw... Dave Henrie wrote:
