Scary to see these cars many of which I have seen in action

This was the man and the car in my birth year (although this picture is from '86)




I have had this poster framed and put in our living room (the race was held five weeks to the day after my birth) Everyone who sees it like it very much. The best thing about it was that I bought it in the Tabac kiosk in the actual Tabac corner in Monaco (obviously a replica)

The World Champion of my year is already featured here. I'll leave it at that, except to say that it's slightly reassuring to see several before my time!
