He really was a four time world champ. He gifted Hunt the title in '76. I like the way a lot of these old school F1 drivers from back in the day, refer to Enzo Ferrari as ilCommendatore, or The Old Man. It shows you the level of respect everyone had for Enzo. People didn't even call him by his name - they didn't have to. When you said il Commandatore or The Old Man everyone knew who you were talking about. Enzo had incredible charisma. He just sat back, wearing his sharp suit, his hair slicked back, looking cool wearing his trademark shades...always wearing the shades!!! To this day we are all beneficiaries of his incredible vision and drive to make his cars, his racing cars, his motor company, the best and most respected in the world.Chesthair Cevertnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-73182222376373236082014-03-23T23:16:55.068-04:002014-03-23T23:16:55.068-04:00he talks about that helmet in one of the clips.he talks about that helmet in one of the clips.AxisACnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-79452288003994398582014-03-23T22:49:19.771-04:002014-03-23T22:49:19.771-04:00I love listening to two drivers talk about racing,...I love listening to two drivers talk about racing, Hans Stuck and Nikki Lauda. Ive never known if Lauda had a special helmet to race with after his burns, but I'm betting he did. It's absolutely huge!Andrew Rappnoreply@blogger.com
