Monza. One of my favourite race tracks of all time. And of course my favourite track in Italy as well as my favourite place and thing about Italy. :)

[@matthewk9563]

Love that I found this channel. Hits that Legends of Motorsports vibe. Keep the transition music vol low so I can listen at bedtime lol

[@Mtlmshr]

Great video I enjoyed the entire video!

The first purpose-built motor racing circuit in the world was Brooklands, located in Weybridge, Surrey, England. It was opened on June 17, 1907. Monza didn't open until 1922.

[@mikescanlon6439]

The Milwaukee Mile race track was opened in 1903 .

[@danielvandersall6756]

And my beloved Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 1909. Based in many ways on Brooklands. America's Cathedral of Speed.

[@bartleta11]

Adelaide came first. Brooklands gets the credit because it wasn’t built for horses whereas Adelaide was built for cars AND horses, but it was still the first circuit specifically built for motor racing. It opened for horse racing in the 1890s but the motor racing track was completed in 1905 less than 2 years before Brooklands opened. Getting faulty information from James May is excruciatingly rare, but yeah. Adelaide/Aspendale came first.

[@tomastoth4018]

Presenter got that 1966 race wrong. Ferrari won that one, but not by Lorenzo Bandini. His only victory came on the 1964 Austian GP at Zeltweg. The 1966 Italian GP was won by Ludovico Scarfiotti and to this day, he is the last Italian driver to win at his home GP.

[@stevenklocinski8558]

That is a bizzare and unfortunate stat for Ferrari. Thanks for sharing that I'm gonna look those guys up.

[@rolfdejonge3915]

Super! Thanks! ✌️🤠🎉🏆

[@shedwork]

Good to see some big banger Holden V8 Commodore tin tops at Monza in 86. The number 5 was driven by Australia's most famous ever touring car racer Peter Brock!

[@janisjohnflorawilds-dr5cc]

Bandini I did NOT win in 1966., it was Scarfiotti. Where are we getting these from? AI?

Autodromo di Monza 👍 - Città autodromo dei miei sogni "Alex IndyMonza" 👍, da non confondere con l'autodromo di Monza .

[@HolidayRambler.Admiral]

The people that created the magic that was Monza would be shocked and embarrassed at what has happened to that track. As any driver of that era would have said "you cant have racing and be safe or its a traffic jam." They knew the risks and wanted to drive anyway. It made them safer better drivers because death is bad. When did Europe decide castration is preferable to risk?

[@NicholasHetrick-j2w]

Targa Florio?

[@DSW964]

Targa Florio- Proof you didn’t have to purpose build to have a temple of everything, including speed. Existed before the others, and unlike those, you had to survive the passes before being rewarded with buonfornello at the end of each lap.

[@gregmtech]

italian ; guys , they invented cars ...... other italian ; oh great ;: lets make a car club then ....

[@polcommwatcher]

Some excellent vintage footage I haven't seen. Basic factual errors per comments annoying, for sure. The Monza incident omitted here, and from other discussions of the track I've read, is Materassi's horrid crash during the 1928 Italian GP/GP of Europe. His car ripped into the grandstand audience on the main straight--he and at least 22 spectators were killed. Von Trips's terrible 1961 accident is famous, while the 1928 disaster seems to be largely unknown, outside of devoted motor sport fans. Not sure what my point is. These days, much seems pointless...

[@johnday4368]

Monza is NOT the birthplace of speed. That is Ormond Beach, Florida, in 1903.

[@Bosko423]

Only two for me, monza and nurburgring., (monza, i mean the unlimited full monza)

[@ehoberg]

Good pictures, but some parts are unreal fast! This makes it unreal, sorry.

[@roddy6924]

It saddens me that you show the cars travelling in the wrong direction in your thumbnail.

[@HolyGuacamolean]

It saddens me even more that you don't know enough about motor sport to know Monza was sometimes run in reverse prior to 1955.

DE in 44mag is nothing but FTF issues. The DE is built for the 50AE round not the 44mag.

[@kenik2023]

You guys do know that some cameras take a pic in mirror image right? They could be going the other way. Take a pic of you sitting in your car and see which way it looks... Some American cars look straight up right hand drive...🤷🏿‍♂️

[@bartleta11]

Sad to see people ripping this channels videos apart in the comments. Would be happy to have the algorithm feed me more of them.

hear me out what if we changed direction every season.

You yadda-yadda-yadda'd over WHY Mercedes withdrew from motor racing.

[@Road2redemtion]

Covered in Le Mans vid.

[@mikesummers-smith4091]

So nothing happened in 1994?

[@gchampi2]

That Thumbnail. The Birthplace of Speed? Monza? Ummm... NOPE. Monza didn't come in to existence until 1922. Brooklands opened in 1907, a full 15 YEARS before Monza. If anywhere can claim to be the "Birthplace of Speed", it's Brooklands, the first purpose built racing venue ON THE PLANET. Sheesh. With an error like that in the thumbnail, I have to question the quality of research that has gone into the rest of the documentary...

[@bartleta11]

Adelaide came first. Brooklands gets the credit because it wasn’t built for horses whereas Adelaide was built for cars AND horses, but it was still the first circuit specifically built for motor racing. It opened for horse racing in the 1890s but the motor racing track was completed in 1905 less than 2 years before Brooklands opened. Getting faulty information from James May is excruciatingly rare, but yeah. Adelaide/Aspendale came first and one could still argue that Monza was the first circuit built specifically to push cars closer to their theoretical top speeds thanks to the banked corners. It’s a cute old-timey KZbin doc, try not to get too worked up.

[@nicktomei7642]

Indianapolis and Daytona are better

[@tehontuoksuinenpulla9504]

Nah not even close
