The story also required extra filming at the GP circuits including shots of the actors behind the wheel. Star James Garner drove a "Jordan-BRM" based on live footage of the BRM P261 at the Monaco Grand Prix. The actual car he drove was a Lotus 22 Formula Junior with added bodywork to give the look of the real BRM. http://www.thehodgkinsons.org.uk/brm-P261.htm (scroll down to the end of the page) -- Last edit: 2020-07-23 21:37:08

Its a 45 second long video of 'behind the scenes' describing the way Steve felt about James Garner taking the starring role in Grand Prix. That is "it left a very bitter taste in Steve's mouth". Looking at the imcdb listings for "Grand Prix" has left me very confused, (OK in my case that's not difficult). However perhaps someone who can judge things better could see if the listings need improvement? -- Last edit: 2020-07-24 14:06:41
