1962 Simca 1000
The Young Racers (1963)
dsl SXThe Grand Luxe appeared in UK as Special - Oct 62 - Sept 63 only, with grey metallic paint only, "saddlery type upholstery", and 50 bhp instead of 45 bhp; then replaced by GL (with 52.5 bhp anew softer seats) as elsewhere. The only other UK version was the normal saloon until Sept 63 introduction of GL (so probably after filming), and this colour rules out Grand Luxe/Special. 2012-10-02 14:09

macca wrote Lotus 24-Climax V8, Trevor Taylor. You can see the hump over the engine, which the 21 didn't have. He carried #17 for the Belgian GP at Spa which is seen in other stills, but this shot looks like Cascades corner at Oulton Park.

RIGHT

1961 Sunbeam Alpine Series II
The Young Racers (1963)
dsl SXAgree it looks most like RW and the issue dates for RW fit the film (particularly if filming happened in 1962 eg the Austin Healey Sprites), but Rootes did not use RW much for factory cars, if at all - KV, WK, DU, HP Coventry issues were much more common. 2010-12-06 18:24

1961 Sunbeam Alpine Series II
The Young Racers (1963)
dsl SXUK plates so not made for France. Format is 1234 AB, with AB looking like FW (not issued), KW (April 63-April 64) or RW (Feb 61-May 62). Dates match Alpine S2 or S3, but fuel filler position looks 1961+ S2.
Edit: same car in /vehicle.php?id=236240#Comment841685 ?

1960 Lotus 18 [Type 18]
The Young Racers (1963)
fsheff USPretty certain this is Ed Leslie in the F-Jr 18 at Riverside International Raceway; seems as if he has spun out and tangled with someone at the exit of Turn Eight of the Grand Prix Course.. Look him up on http://tamsoldracecarsite.net/. Whoa! There it is right on the front page, and meticulous Tam is calling it a "Lotus 20".

macca ENLotus 18/21, the 1960 car updated with 1961-style bodywork. There appears to be a fern on his crash-helmet, so I think it is New Zealander Tony Shelley.

1961 Porsche 787
The Young Racers (1963)
macca ENIt looks like Monaco (just before Massenet, at the top of the climb from Ste Devote) and it looks like Jo Bonnier, who carried #2; but he was in a works Porsche coloured silver, whereas that one has the badge and colours of one of the privateer Italian teams......... 2009-08-26 22:58

The Young Racers (1963)
macca ENJim Clark in Lotus 25, followed by trevor Taylor in Lotus 24. The number is that carried in the Belgian GP at Spa, also used for footage in the film, but the corner looks like Druids at Oulton Park. 2009-08-26 22:23
