Awesom vid. I was pleasantly surprised to see that a pair of my favorite musicians, Boards of Canada, or one of their fans, had made a video out of similar footage with Jackie Stewart driving and a hot 70's F1 groupie to boot!

Spectrum - Boards of Canada

That F1 groupie is Stewart's wife Helen. They were married over forty years ago!
