hello,

i once saw an interview with jackie stewart about how to drive in monaco. must be from the late 60ies or from the 70ies.
does anyone have a link to the video for me or can tell me where to find it?

thanks.

Well, you have a complete film about it, "Weekend of a Champion", by Polansky, a documentary about Jackie during the 1971 Monaco GP.

Just tried to locate it on various film websites but it doesn't appear to be available on DVD.

I bought my copy on video some years ago but looks as though it has been deleted.

hey andré,

thanks!

I got it on DVD about 2 years ago!

I just went to IMdB to see if DVDs are available (and what region)- they don't list any BTW, but I just noticed Polansky is only producer, while director listed is Frank Simon ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068178/ ).

...............I think.

Hi Gary,

Is it a VHS copied to DVD or a real DVD ?
I've been looking for a DVD copy of this film for a long time, I could not find it !

Ebay is your friend...

I am almost sure that these DVDs being sold at E-bay are copies from VHS films ...
For instance, Motorbooks has "If you are not winning ... you are not trying !" in VHS but not in DVD.
But this E-bay seller has got it in DVD !

I am not worried about copyrights (it is not my business ...), what I want is good quality DVD !

Has anyone seen this "Weekend of Champion " copy ?

I'd be pretty certain the e-bay offerings are bootleg copies (otherwise they would have posted the DVD cover on their e-bay listing and not a fuzzy still from the film).
