- These are the final 5 laps of the 1982 Austrian Grand Prix held at the Österreichring. The conclusion is very exciting between Elio De Angelis and Keke Rosberg (subsequent champion of the same year).

Keke Rosberg was an absolute demon driver. Blisteringly fast.
Totally agree. This configuration of the track would have been perfectly safe had they simply modified the surroundings to allow huge, FIA-friendly run off areas. Alain Prost even said so.
Many thanks to LeighF1 for posting this brilliant footage :)
I agree a superb circuit. A sad day when it was bulldozed and turned into the A1 Ring!! Ahh the days of great circuits and proper racing and overtaking in F1!!!!
Magnificent stuff! F1 exactly how it should be - great racing on a superb track.
Great stuff. Not only the action on the track, but James Hunt too...I still miss his commentary...sad early loss.
Nope, this is a recording from Channel 9 Australia. Hence you will notice if you watch the entire clip, a very short ad break in between the coverage. Channel 9 did use the BBC feed though and hence the presence of Murray Walker and James Hunt with the slight overdub by Allen Jones
totally agree!! today we have Spa, Monza, Montecarlo, .. but I miss Clermont Ferrand, Brands Hatch, the old Ring, the old Hockenheim, Watkins Glenn, the old Imola...
And miss Keke, Schummi, Gilles, Piquet, Clark, Nigel, and... Mika!!
I remember this race well. It was the one in which Nelson Piquet's Brabham finally made it to its scheduled pit stop, but the engine failed immediately after. Many years later I had the privilege of sitting in Elio's winning Lotus while on a visit to the Classic Team Lotus garage.
Yep Murray stole the idea for refueling from the American CART series wheere these refuelings was ordinary from the 70s.
That happened with both Piquet and Patrese’s cars - the BMW engines were notoriously unreliable that season. For some reason they got that problem sorted in 1983, but the same problems occurred 1984-87. I’d be interested to find out why that was.
Nico's got a lot to live up to. His old man was a great driver!
Still miss you Elio.
I love this video. No need to say more.
FANTASTIC! ELIO DE ANGELIS SHOW! !!MAGNIFIC! !!★★★★★
Happy Birthday Keke!
A fantastic drive by a fantastic driver. Rest in peace, Elio
These two drivers really respected each other - they got on very well
Elio de Angelis, un piloto brillante...!!!
Amen to that.
Ciao Elio...25 years since you're gone today
colin chapmans last win
Really a superb track!
Thanks for sharing
Real racing and a real circuit, not the rubbish designed by Herman the German these days. Thanks for posting
some months ago i was walking around the hella licht chicane with my wife and it felt just awesome to be there. (it's just a five minutes drive from my parents place to the A1/red bull/österreichring)
R.I.P. Elio...
top footage!
Fantastic track elevation. Take note Mr Tilke, you git!
I remember Murray Walker used to apolgise for being Patriotic to the viewers in Australia et al former Colonies but i was too young to appreciate what he was talking about! Could anyone tell me which countries got Murray and James for their commentary back in the days before multi-channel digital TV! I guess it was not so easy back then for every country to have their own commentary?
Great battle between two drivers both hungry for their first Grand Prix victory.
Keke had already won a race. Second last race of the season in his championship winning year - although he only won one race in the season
Ah, at least there were then slick monsters, ground effects and cute cars without 89765456 wings, so we could get real overpasses at track, just as Tambay to Lauda (2:45), instead those silly and boring strategy passes.
Ideal F1: 1982 design, 2006 security.
Elio was The Stig.. Just look at the helmet.
ELIO, GENIAL, EMOCIONANTE SIMPLESMENTE DIVINO!
Damn, it was close :/
Well all I can say is thank God for commercialization then!
Whoa! Do you have links for that? I'd love to see it.
@motorsportnutter4eva
That´s the problem, they would go 50 kmh faster through te bosch kurve, making it harder to go side by side unless you make the track wider...
Yes it is
I love that old circuit. Why do they always change the circuits and not the cars to make them slower...cry
Why do you want to make the cars slower?
@@mateagoston7113 So they don't need half a mile of run-off area at every fast corner. They wouldn't look slow if they had much less downforce and had to actually drive around the corners. Entertainment and overtaking would rise significantly.
If only this track was used for F1 nowadays, a real drivers circuit. Can you imagine how fast that Bosch-kurve would be to a modern F1 car, sadly Hermann Tilke botches up every decent circuit he breathes on, today's drivers are missing out on some real classic circuits.
no hairpins no slow bends a real track so slipstreaming can be done leading to overtaking wish we had circuits like this today even ruined silverstone now
1:46 would NEVER happen in the 2000's :'D
imagine, if Rosberg won, he wouln't b as famous (winning the Championship only winning 1 race)
No, it is österreichring. Check wikipedia.
This is Australian TV? I thought it's the BBC...
le wing cars in questi curvoni fanno venire i brividi. sembra che siano su dei binari, se superi i limiti del grip sbamm vai a muro
how could this lotus get infront?? love lotus but they where not really the best team to that point...
They were decent on their day. Williams certainly wasn;t the quickest car on most tracks either - although it was good on twisty circuits
37 years later Renault is still blowing up engines left right and center!
the most succesufull engine maker after Ford in the World
I agree, a fantastic track, but defenitely not useable for today's grand prix cars. look at the non-existant run-off-areas. I hope the rebuilt Red-Bull-Ring will be better than the A1-Ring.
Today's tracks are an absolute disgrace. Want to know why the racing is boring? Look no further than what they are racing on!
Tilke = Shit...
Nice Video, btw....
