Peugeot have a unique aside to this, they've won the Indy 500 3 times(1913,16,&19), Le Mans 3 times(1992,1993,& 2009), & the WRC 5(1985,86,2000,01,& 02) times! Not to mention both the Dakar Rally & Monte Carlo Rally!

Great piece; it's nice to see these two historic chassis next to each other. I was 12 in 1974; being in the US I watched as many IndyCar (USAC series at the time) races as I could but F1 race telecasts were few and far between here back then.

Please tell Mr. Thynne that Pocono is pronounced POKE-a-no.

Real good chance of McLaren winning the 500 and the F1 Championship in the same season again next year.

My grandfather was the go-to bakery for Indy500 drivers in the '60s and '70s. He had a bakery two blocks from the south tunnel entrance. I have pictures of tons of drivers just standing in line or sitting down, drinking coffee, and eating donuts.

The papaya and blue livery looks amazing. I know they are very unsafe by modern standards, but the variation in appearance of these '70s cars really makes them look incredible.

Those cars look so unsafe to drive

1:11 - it is possibly a mistake, it possibly make the lap slower, but that correction is sigma.

I wish F1 cars returned to those simple lines - minus being a metal flame box.
