The film itself is pretty meh (or maybe just of it's time), but the racing's fantastic. And mostly real as well apparently - the director didn't want to do the usual thing of recording slow sequences and speeding them up by running the film faster, so they got all the F1 drivers of the time to race and film all the cars around the tracks with massive film cameras hanging off them.
Yeah - that's the one.
