The dramatic portion of this film is non consequential but the racing footage is very nice. One of the first and ground breaking aerial helicopter footage films along with the POV, in the Formula 1 racing cars cameras, that were remote controlled. First use of wireless video viewfinders on the cameras. Really must be seen on a big CINERAMA screen! They had to give out barf bags! Ray Hughes
