First off, thanks for always answering my questions with thoughtful and insightful replies. As far as a Mt. Rushmore of F1 goes (I’m going to limit myself to 4, because there are 4 heads on Mt. Rushmore).

My day job is cinematography and capturing story in image, sound and color. Growing up, I was drawn to F1 in the 70’s because of these ultimate machines, the best of the best, fastest… Read more »
