F1 1976 | Hunt has a Shunt at the British Grand Prix

Rarely has there been a Formula 1 Grand Prix where audience participation played such a role in the outcome of the race - at least on paper - than the 1976 British Grand Prix at Brands Hatch. This remarkable film charts the twists and turns of a race that was controversial at the time, and has remained so ever since.

Within seconds, it looked as if Hunt’s ambition wouldn’t come to pass, but what followed was an incredible moment in F1 history, now often overlooked because of the crash which nearly killed Lauda two weeks later at the Nurburgring.
