Earlier this morning, Axel Anquetil shared with us his latest short film on the 2011 Trophée Andros. I am so glad he did, and I am embarrassed to think that I wouldn't have caught it otherwise!
The pace of the film is very methodical and incredibly revealing. It begins with the initial vibes of the press showcase, a bit of racing footage from events held alongside, behind-the-scene glimpses of car, data and driver prep work done before the race, and there's even a Jacques Villeneuve cameo! Can any of you spot him? I got to hand it to the teams for all the effort they have to put in before the race even begins.
Best of all, I now know what the four-time Formula 1 world champion and Ayrton Senna's arch rival, Alain Prost, has been up to. He looks as active as ever and there's a certain youth in his eyes and mannerisms when he speaks with his teammates and technicians. The old boy's still got it! Don't believe me? Check out 6 minutes 29 seconds! Thank you again, Axel Anquetil.
