Please Read the full description.
The Circuit of Clermont-Ferrand, also called Charade, was inaugurated in 1958 and hosted its first F1 race in 1965. Its layout is mountainous so it twists and undulates around two extinct volcanoes with no real straight apart from a short one at the start.. Its infrastructure located on a mountainside, as well as the track full of gravel and volcanic flint, created many problems for the drivers.
This is its full story.

Please note that I mentioned Ivor Bueb dying some days after crashing at Gravenoire in the F2 car race in 1959 but I ended forgetting to mention that Marcelin Herranz died in 250cc bike practice in 1963.

  1. Vielen Dank die Du-Ihr gemacht habt um diese wunderbaren Filme zu finden um sie uns zu zeigen, mit vielen Gesichtern die ich noch sofort erkenne.Ich liebe diese alten Film Aufnahmen, auch wenn diese Zeit des Motorsports immer einen schlechten Geschmack im Kopf hinterläst, viele haben dabei ihr Leben verloren, vergessen werde ich ihre Gesichter und Namen niemals.
    Zur Strecke kennen tu ich sie nur durch Filmaufnahmen u Fernsehberichte,nach dem Nürburgring ist die für mich die NR 2 wo ich gerne mal mit,m Motorrad drüber fahren würde, meine NR 3 ist auch in Frankreich Ledenon. Ich freue mich schon auf den nächsten Bericht von dir-euch. Was ich überhaupt nicht verstehe das es so wenige Kommentare gibt bei so tollen Filmen.

  2. I drive this historic track with historic 60's/70's racing car models in Assetto Corsa which is quite challenging and great fun. Thanks for the Upload!

    Jochen Rindt, who won at Charade in 1970 preferred to drive there with a helmet without visor in case he started to feel sick due to the twists and turns on the track.
