My subscription website won't all be prewar and 50s and 60s footage, it will also be things like this from 1985. All pictures are copyright me and are also unpublished. @CJGrandPrix @GrandPrixDiary @dylanmichael77 @F1History1950

@TheBishF1 @RoyalFamily @POTUS Absolutely, 100% right, Matt. The Royal Family should not be going anywhere the US at the moment....

@RoyalFamily Please compare your #Easter greeting (above), @RoyalFamily, with that of the @POTUS (below). You simply cannot debase your & the UK’s reputation by sending the king on an official visit to an unhinged, sadistic & foul-mouthed war criminal. You know I’m right. Cancel it now.

🐣✝️ Wishing a joyous Easter Sunday to Christians celebrating in the UK, the Commonwealth and around the world today.

@MarinaPurkiss @TedUrchin This CAN'T be real??

Trump’s latest post on Truth Social… Is anyone going to stop this depraved, demented dipshit?

@CJGrandPrix ....and I made sure the film was running at the right speed, too!

@tyrrell005 @MercedesAMGF1 @rwilliams1947 @archivetvmus71 @dylanmichael77 @F1History1950 @ian_845846 @GrandPrixDiary @gmracingblue Wowza – to state the obvious – they're bloody fast!

A brief clip of one of my home movie items, here's unseen film of the 1937 Donington Grand Prix. Excuse the shaky camerawork! @MercedesAMGF1 @rwilliams1947 @CJGrandPrix @archivetvmus71 @dylanmichael77 @F1History1950 @ian_845846 @GrandPrixDiary @gmracingblue

@FurkanGozukara @JohnCleese Great. Suck it up US.

Massive geopolitical shift. The BBC confirms European nations are completely bypassing Washington and negotiating directly with Iran to use the Strait of Hormuz. NATO and Gulf states absolutely refuse to join Trumps disastrous military campaign. The US is isolated.

@PeteHegseth @POTUS W.A.N.K.E.R.

A few screen grabs from another home movie in my archive, with a little help we've worked out that this is the 1936 Donington Grand Prix. Only 90 years old then! @CJGrandPrix @rwilliams1947 Unseen film! @BRDCSilverstone @donington_hist @DoningtonPark

@CJGrandPrix @MercedesAMGF1 @MercedesBenzUSA It certainly was, I have both stills AND film of that. The W165 was driven by Fangio.

@tyrrell005 @MercedesAMGF1 @MercedesBenzUSA Fantastic! That was the day that Moss & Jenks lapped in an SLR?

From my archive, Mercedes at Silverstone in 1967 for a demo run before the Grand Prix. @CJGrandPrix @MercedesAMGF1 @MercedesBenzUSA

And...new wallpaper for the PC.

Looking at the 1937 Donington film I'm going to attempt to restore it, this section has water damage to the edge of the film. I've made an initial effort as you can see in the second pic. Bear in mind this is 1 frame,there are 24 in a second! @rwilliams1947 @CJGrandPrix #oldfilm

@tompetty From the BBCs 'Old Grey Whistle Test' programme.

On this day in 1974, Tom Petty and Mudcrutch left Gainesville, Florida for Los Angeles, California packed into a station wagon and a U-Haul in pursuit of a record deal and a dream. [Footage from the Petty Archives, backstage at the Whiskey-A-Go-Go, 1977]

@QPRReport @ChelseaFC @premerleague How on Earth are they not bankrupt?

Congratulations to @ChelseaFC on establishing this @PremerLeague record! 🏆 #CFC

@GrandPrixDiary Holy shit, the driver of that flatbed was an absolute twat. I bet he didn't pay for the damage to that car...

And a more modern version of how best not to retrieve a race car…

@archer_rs he'll be dead soon.

As a tempting as it might be to think this is an April Fool joke, regretfully it is not. The Trump Presidential library, complete with massive golden statue of Trump, will be a publicly funded Trump Hotel, revenue to flow to . . . . . . . . Trump.

Today I shall mainly be viewing unseen home movie film of the 1938 British Grand Prix at DoningtonPark. A Mercedes/Auto Union fest! @rwilliams1947 @MercedesAMGF1 @MercedesBenz @CJGrandPrix

@KrisVanD2 @gmracingblue Taken from the film 'Weekend Of A Champion'.

Jackie Stewart and Françoise Cevert having a chat and talk about which gear to use. 1971 Monaco Grand Prix. Jackie Stewart drove the Tyrrell 003 and won the race,Françoise Cevert drove the Tyrrell 002 and DNF the race. #F1 #RetroF1

@QPRReport @QPR @WestHam And against our greatest ever goalkeeper, too.

This famed Clive Allen goal for @QPR against @WestHam - #OnThisDay in 1984: .... Nice Marsh, Bowles-level skills show by Allen for #QPR

@TheMaverickWS @TedUrchin Wankers both.

Before the war: 1) Iran didn't control the Strait Of Hormuz, now it does 2) Iran oil was sanctioned, now it's not 3) Iran was not building a nuke, now it will 4) US bases in the Gulf were assets, now liabilities 5) Inflation was declining, now increasing Definitely winning!
