Rare film of this tragic race, presented by Firestone. As a tire company, they are not interested in tragedies so there is not a lot of coverage about crashes. They sell tires after all, not coffins.
The 1964 Indy 500 – a race featuring Jim Clark and Jack Brabham among the Americans, but is primarily remembered for a fiery seven-car accident which resulted in the deaths of racers Eddie Sachs and Dave MacDonald. It is also the last race won by a front-engined “roadster”, as all subsequent races have been won by rear-engined, formula-style cars.

I just uploaded another film of this race – it features the crash from many angles and it honours the dead drivers. If you are interested, it is here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6axqvk5gIjo
was only in 5th grade when this happened probably heard it on the radieo
I’m glad the flagman isn’t on the track anymore.
“Precision racing machines” the narrator exclaims. What a joke. The gas tank on MacDonald’s car consisted of a thick piece of rubber stapled to the underside of the car.
Jim Clark and Jack Brabham were not Americans. Clark was from Scotland and Brabham was from Australia.
Super Upload !!! Danke, liebe es.
