So I hear, any way. It just goes to show you shouldn’t believe everything you here
Ok so it still isn’t the best second and third place battle in F1 History, and to be fair Ranault have been waiting a while to get there own back, but how long is it since we saw 2 world champions that close at the end of a race? (Conor are you out there?)
Oh BTW the link above is Described Completly incorrectly so ignore that, this is the closing laps of the 1979 French Grand Prix in Dijon, the race was the first race to be won by a Turbocharged car in F1 by Jean-Pierre Jabouille in a Renault.
Those of us who saw this on the day (tv or at the circuit) know what really mattered that day and that was the battle for second place between Rene Arnoux (Renault) (who’s quoted at the start and end of the clip) and Gilles Villeneuve (Ferrari) Even at 4 years old (okay almost 5) I knew I was watching something very very special.
