As you will remember, the 1977 Austrian Grand Prix was held under ....eeerrr...."special" circumstances with a very limited field, due to the tragic events that took place in the 350cc race that day.

For what it's worth, there's an amateur video of the 350cc race that weekend here:

Not seen it posted here before. Be warned, it does have footage of the accident.

The emergency response was a joke back then. Thanks god for all the improvements over the years.
