Seventy years ago!

Goodness would you look at that.

I appreciate the hay bails, and the flowers (grass) growing along the track edges. :D
 
I went with my Dad to watch the 1954 F1 Grand Prix at Silverstone. After a few laps, Dad pointed to a spot on the corner where some grass only just grew over the track. He said "Moss always touches that same piece of grass on every lap, watch!" I watched and sure enough Moss did! Totally consistent in his Maserati! He finished fourth. The race was won by Fangio from Gonzelez and Hawthorn. That is the only F1 race I've ever seen close up and personal! Hay bales and grass it was!
 
The joke is that a few haybales aren't going to do much if you drive into them at 200
 
Great footage. Thanks for posting.
