Cracking film ! Thanks
I was priviledged to have Brabhams son and Fangio's Nephew race for me at Le Mans in the early 90's and both are chips off the old block.
Fangio II was charming (and quick) responding to advice about the car or the circuit with 'You eezackly right!' after he had been out and tried the modification. His uncle is simply a legend.
