	taoyue.com: Film Reviews - Grand Prix (1966)
		One gets a good flavor of racing history and legends as voiceovers discuss the allure of the Monaco Grand Prix, which takes place on city streets and has little room for passing or margin for error due to the narrowness of the course.
		Despite its uneven nature, Grand Prix is sort of a guilty pleasure, a film that has terrific action scenes and is decent overall, and also happens to be quite educational for anyone who is not into Formula One racing.
		Grand Prix was released on Region 1 DVD on 11 July 2006.

	Grand Prix Legends, Screenshots, Reviews, News, Files, Downloads, Mods - SimRacingWorld
		While Grand Prix Legends provided the most realistic (and hence, difficult) simulation of automotive physics in a PC game at its launch, the reputation of "difficult to drive" was exacerbated by a number of decisions made both for the demo and the launch of version 1.0.
		Grand Prix cars from 1967 typically ran 5 to 6 inches of ground clearance, unlike the later ground effect cars that were designed to have the chassis as close to the ground as possible.
		There is now a new Grand Prix Legends 2004 Demo that has all the required patches and upgrades to the cars and the one track included.

	GRAND PRIX REDUX: The Italian Stallion Does Maranello
		By coincidence or design, Grand Prix seems to be enjoying a renaissance itself; the movie has been aired recently on several TV stations around the world, and is also now available on home video.
		The tumult at Ferrari also led to the withdrawal of Ferrari from the 1966 British Grand Prix at Brands Hatch, which unfortunately was one of the main races chosen by Frankenheimer to showcase the sport and his film resplendent as it was with British marching bands and the atmospherics of a great racing circuit.
		It should be remembered that "Grand Prix" was filmed just as society was on the cusp between the ultimate playing out of the fashions, tastes and designs of the 1950's and the cultural upheaval that was to come by 1968 and in the Monaco scenes the movie captures that cultural moment perfectly.

		I would not go as far as one media source wrote in their pre-race blurb, that "Monaco is THE race to win", unless you are a social climber and value the opportunity of shaking hands with a real, live Prince and Princess on the winners rostrum.
		Like the Le Mans 24-hour race and Indianapolis, the Monaco Grand Prix has become something of an institution, even if it does not fit into the driver/businessman's idea of how Formula One should be moulded to suit his profession.
		The Monaco GP was no exception, though it wasn't a dull procession for groups of the cars were running very close to each other.

	8W - What? - Ligier
		Making up the numbers in a Grand Prix suffering from 3-litre engine starvation, the French businessman was expected to be one of the many fly-by privateers of the day who were in and out of F1 before you could blink an eye.
		Although not one of the grid's fastest privateers, Ligier's driveshaft troubles during the Monaco race did not give a true reflection of his capabilities, since in qualifying he outpaced Bob Bondurant's private BRM and was only 0.2s adrift of Jo Bonnier's similar private Cooper-Maserati.
		So at the start of the first Grand Prix of the World Championship, here at Monaco, Ligier was one of only seven lucky drivers who had a full Grand Prix machine at their disposal in a field of 16 starters.

		The Monaco Grand Prix marked the first World Championship race of the new 3-liter formula and there were a multitude of changes, including a variety of new teams, in various states of preparedness.
		Team Lotus, which had dominated in 1965, had convinced the Ford Motor Company to fund the construction of a new engine by Cosworth Engineering and Keith Duckworth and Mike Costin were busy preparing the DFV.
		This left Lotus without an engine for the 1966 season and so a deal was struck to use the BRM H16 engine.

		The Historic Grand Prix meeting is not over expensive to organise, as the stands, safety barriers, and the other essential infrastructure parts are already in place for the following week's F1 World Championship Grand Prix.
		In 1952, the Monaco event had been run for sports cars, as this was a period in F1 when the regulations were being changed from one engine to another and there was not an abundance of single-seater racuing cars.
