F1 quali British GP 1986

This was the period when I was most passionate about F1.
Possibly because of the close racing involved but certainly because of a combination of how fast, noisy and spectacular the cars looked as well as the characters driving them, Senna, Prost, Piquet, Mansell.
Was great to watch this quali session, I’ve never seen it as I was actually down Brands that year and mum forgot to tape quali AND the race for me on the family vcr. Lol
Compare that to how interested I am today; I know Lewis is leading the championship but I have no idea who is behind him and no idea about the chinless wonders driving the assortment of clinical, precision technofests around these days.
I’ll probably be out on a bikeride when the race has started and won’t be bothered about watching the replay later.
How times have changed!
