There's a lot behind the scenes. 494 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,640 Whether it's one's feelings or what you're thinking. 495 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,360 It sounds, seems and looks glamorous, 496 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,760 but, in fact, it's just another business. 497 00:41:28,240 --> 00:41:29,760 It's a serious business. 498 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:45,600 Drivers and Formula 1 management 499 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,040 are assembling on the grid for a special gathering. 500 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,240 The tartan is out for F1 legend, Sir Jackie Stewart, 501 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,280 celebrating his 80th birthday. 502 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,000 Nobody or nothing is irreplaceable. 503 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,400 Unfortunately, that's the truth. 504 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,960 When we saw Jim Clark's death, 505 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:10,920 we thought it would never be the same. 506 00:42:12,720 --> 00:42:14,400 When we saw the death of Ayrton Senna, 507 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:16,280 we thought it will never be the same. 508 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:19,880 It is the same. 509 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,120 Life goes on. 510 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:57,360 When François Cevert came along, he was different. 511 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,560 I actually saw this young driver 512 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,560 who had clear talent but had an enormous 513 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,960 appetite to learn. 514 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:21,040 And an enormous amount of energy to want to deliver. 515 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:27,360 But he was almost too good-looking to be a racing driver. Oof! 516 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,440 You know, why would you want somebody like that? 517 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:34,240 "Can he be a serious racing driver looking like this?" 518 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,360 You say first round the hairpin, first on the left of the hairpin? 519 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,720 I told François everything. 520 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:06,440 He knew more than any other teammate would ever know. 521 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:10,120 Everybody's listening. Helmut! 522 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:13,400 All my secrets, Helmut! 523 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:17,440 And Jackie's so good 524 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:22,080 in analysing the car. He reads the car so well. 525 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,080 But, when the flag drops, 526 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:29,120 He always has a very easy car to drive. 527 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,120 He doesn't have to fight with his car 528 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,840 because the car doesn't go around the corner well. 529 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:43,320 He always manages to fix his car so it will be very easy to drive. 530 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,600 Last year you were even less nervous 531 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,880 - before the race... - Yeah, that's right. 532 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:51,840 You were quite relaxed last year. 533 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,560 As I say again, Jackie is the one that affects me. 534 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,640 He is nervous this morning. I can feel it. 535 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,720 I saw a report in one of the newspapers last week. 536 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,840 It was sort of Jackie's life with me. 537 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:06,280 And at the bottom of it 538 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,280 were five of our closest friends who had been killed. 539 00:45:10,720 --> 00:45:13,080 And I suddenly realised that these five people 540 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,640 are the closest people we've ever come to in racing. 541 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,760 And there's nobody left in racing as far as we're concerned. 542 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,720 A beautiful start by Stewart... 543 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,080 Are you worried by her ability 544 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,240 - to contain all of this? - No, not at all. 545 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:40,760 No, what I mean is, you know, 546 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,960 I suppose it's possible she is storing all of this stuff up 547 00:45:44,720 --> 00:45:47,120 - and it may some time come out. - It might do, 548 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,880 but she's got a tremendous strength of character. 549 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,560 I think she's stronger than I am. 550 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,120 - She's much stronger than I am. - How is she stronger than you are? 551 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:59,000 She sees the important things in life 552 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:00,800 and sometimes... I respect her for it, 553 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,800 she doesn't let her feelings automatically rumble out. 554 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,040 So you respect her the same way you respect yourself? 555 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,920 I think Jackie was happy I was like that 556 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,760 because if I was, you know, crying every five minutes like some girls, 557 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:18,280 which I understand... But you must be strong for Jackie. 558 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:21,760 Here he comes, the flag is ready. 559 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:25,280 Jackie Stewart wins the Monaco Grand Prix for Tyrrell. 560 00:46:29,720 --> 00:46:33,160 I believe in good luck. You need good luck. 561 00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:36,440 Everybody does, but I don't believe in bad luck. 562 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:49,120 If you have continuous bad luck, you're not just an unlucky person. 563 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:51,760 You've got it wrong. You're doing it wrongly, 564 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:53,400 and you've must recognise that. 565 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:01,120 Would you gamble at all? 566 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:06,000 In Monte Carlo, I go to the casino. Maybe the night after the race. 567 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:10,040 And you know, all I gamble is 25 dollars. 568 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:11,640 - 25 dollars? - That's all. 569 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,120 - You cheap son of a bitch. - Yes! 570 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,400 - You really are cheap? - When it comes to betting, 571 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:18,800 I wouldn't put money on what I didn't understand. 572 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:22,120 - You tight-arsed son of a bitch! - You're absolutely right, I am. 573 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:26,320 Why would I want to put my money on something I don't understand? 574 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:35,320 The problem is, Roger, 575 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:39,440 when I'm all... I've got in my mind a certain 576 00:47:40,240 --> 00:47:41,920 attitude towards the car. 577 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:43,680 It's jumping out of gear 578 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,080 and it's hard to get in, and then the whole thing goes... 579 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,960 It's a mechanical happening, you know, 580 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,040 it builds up and builds up, and it's not in the bump rubbers. 581 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:59,120 Jackie has trouble in communicating with writing and written words. 582 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,760 But, he has absolutely no trouble at all 583 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,000 in communicating with the spoken word. 584 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:11,400 I learnt how to communicate. I learnt how to explain 585 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,360 why the car was doing this instead of this. 586 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:18,520 It took me longer to explain, perhaps, than most people, 587 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:22,600 but it was probably more vivid because I tried harder. 588 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,800 It felt like, to begin with, there was no brake in the front. 589 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,000 I could press the brake until there was a hole in my foot. 590 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,600 I was a pain in the arse. 591 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:36,080 People will say, "Oh God, Jackie goes on and on about this". 592 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:38,760 It's because I don't think they've grasped it. 593 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:40,720 And many times, of course, they have. 594 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:44,920 Engage fifth, then finally it starts to, but not second. 595 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:51,640 I can say that I think I could tune into mechanics and engineers, 596 00:48:51,720 --> 00:48:54,080 and I respected them for what they did 597 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,640 and understood the quality of their work. 598 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,240 My mechanics were better at doing what they did 599 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:03,160 than I ever was at what I did. 600 00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:06,720 And that's why I'm alive today. 601 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,160 We understand that some of the drivers 602 00:49:16,240 --> 00:49:19,160 are concerned about the safety of the track's surface. 603 00:49:19,240 --> 00:49:22,240 So, there will be further updates on the situation... 604 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,480 Safety, the word hits a raw nerve as far as I was concerned, 605 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,920 because safety was a sick joke. There wasn't any safety. 606 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:36,920 The circuits were dangerous, and the medical facilities were 607 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,560 basic, to put it mildly. 608 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,360 With one hour until the track opens, 609 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:46,120 there is an inspection in progress led by Jackie Stewart, 610 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,520 a driver with strong opinions on motor racing safety. 611 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:53,520 The problem is they've known for nine months this race will happen, 612 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:56,880 and they've chosen the last week to resurface a racetrack. 613 00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,600 I just want to make sure that 614 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:03,920 if we practise and the surface is breaking up, 615 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:05,560 the race will be cancelled. 616 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,880 We don't want any more bullshit that they will repair the road. 617 00:50:09,720 --> 00:50:13,840 We have to recognise that racing never will be totally safe. 618 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:18,280 The objective within motor sport, or certainly my objective, 619 00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:22,920 is to perhaps remove its unnecessary hazards. 620 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:29,320 There are many today who feel that motor sport should be dangerous. 621 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:31,880 Almost gladiatorial. 622 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,760 They strongly resist Stewart's safety campaign. 623 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:41,120 Stirling Moss! He believed it wasn't our job to be doing that. 624 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,360 He believed that we had to take risks. 625 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,240 He always was a good friend, but we differed on safety. 626 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,680 This is something where Jackie and I don't see eye to eye. 627 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:52,360 I think we have to blame him 628 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,560 for the emasculation of every decent circuit. 629 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,720 I believe, you see, that racing needs an element of danger because, 630 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:03,240 to me, it's rather like cooking and not having any salt. 631 00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:06,640 I mean, the real flavour comes out with the danger. 632 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:15,640 Driver safety is one thing, but Jackie Stewart has his eye 633 00:51:15,720 --> 00:51:17,720 on a bigger picture. 634 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,320 If we are anything less than totally responsible, 635 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:23,960 we could lose this sport. 636 00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:28,120 And if we do not keep our own house in order 637 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:34,240 by containing accidents within limitations of the track, without, 638 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:40,160 God forbid, without it reaching the spectators. 639 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,200 Our biggest risk is that happening. 640 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:48,120 As far as I'm concerned, I need now...
