DVD/Video 1988 British F3 - videos & footage

Peter Dunne · 6 Feb 2008, 17:14 (Ref:2122588)

Does anyone know if any footage of the '88 f3 champs exists? I own the Reynard that Roland Ratzenberger used in 1988 and it would be nice to see it in action back then.

I just bought '88 review and have watched first couple rounds.

87 was up but some joker won the bidding at over £30 squid. i wasn't prepared to go that far! 1990 is up but i'm not sure if I want that, 2 horse race all year Hakkinen and Salo made total mugs out of the rest.

Best action from '89 IMO. One of the hardest fought seasons of F3 EVER. So many good drivers came through that year and not all of them made it.....

I know the car. Ex Magic motorsports Reynard. What are you going to do with it?

I have the ex Raphael Real del Sarte car from 1988. I can only make out this car in the 1990? video as it was the car Mika Hakinen had to swerve to avoid before rolling at Snetterton. At the time it was driven by Charles Rickets. I would love to find any pictures of it in its day but i havn't found any yet.

Spot on! I bought it from Nick 2 years ago but was sidelined for a year after chopping one of my fingers off! It still has the Vauxhall XE in which I now have running on throttle bodies and have also done the cams pistons etc. I will run it in Formula Libre again this year in Ireland, provided I can keep my extremities out of machinery!

If you go on u-tube there's a video of ricketts' and hakkinen's shunt at thruxton.....

quick question - why was there 2 british f3 champions in the same year during the 70's?

ie : warwick & piquet in 78...

Peter Dunne · 22 Feb 2008, 12:49 (Ref:2134980)

Because there were two championships in '78! Piquet won the BP Super Visco with Warwick second. This was reversed in the Vanderwell Championship with Warwick taking the top spot and Piquet second.

**gomick** · 22 Feb 2008, 22:55 (Ref:2135376)

where both championships of equal status or one more highly regarded than the other...

Peter Dunne · 25 Feb 2008, 10:21 (Ref:2137369)

The BP championship was regarded as the better of the two. The Vandervell was originally the Shellsport in the mid seventies. There were also years where there were different sponsors such as John Player in '73 and Forward Trust in '74.
