Trying to avoid the modern circuits for the 60's series, not always possible I know and we're not blessed with options. Also I've been on the g25 the last few days as my wheel was stolen by a certain visitor here and have had no issues with it. FFB smoothing around 16 I think.
Oh is the version of Jarama too modern?
It's not much different from when they raced in '68:

Reading the finishing order in that video brought back memories of how bad the safety was back then , of those 6 drivers only 2 would reach old age .
This prompted me to check the entry list . Of 13 entrants 8 would not survive , 1 of those would also lose his brother and 1 of the survivors would lose his son in 2009 , this was also the first F1 race after the death of Jim Clarke .
For me this was the golden age of racing , its sad to remember it also had a very dark side as well
