And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Bad photoshop/AI indeed. Jim Clark and Jackie Stewart never raced the same cars. They were never part of the same F1 team. Both those cars look the same. Look at the air intakes on both cars.
The well defined shadow is also a dead giveaway of the shoddy photoshop/AI work. Lastly if car 1 and car 2 are both flying at the same time that would mean that these cars flew for hundreds of feet. It was not uncommon for 1960's F1 cars to fly but never longer than 10 feet and never higher than 1 foot.
Looks like the mid-60s era cars as driven by my personal favorite F1 driver, Mr. Jim Clark. It took excellent courage and skill to pilot one of these fiddly things.
Great photo for sure, drive a buddies formula D car few times open track days, be pretty effin wild jumping it. The ring is such a great road course. Reminds me, used to race at a track Sterling Moss designed, raced in 2 others he laid out, the guy knew his stuff, Mossport and the old Loudon NH track are my favorite courses, his designs have this flow to them, a third is the real crazy fast incredibly complex track at the bridge, Bridgehampton on the tip of Long Island, quite dangerous, 3 corners in particular, only way thru is WOT, your self preservation kicks in annd you want to back off the throttle, but if you keep it pinned crazy thing is how smooth and natural the corners become, seriously, his compadres had balls of steel, and had to have revelled in their expertise mastering these amazing road courses, everything gets thrown at you. But when you begin mastering them, they really flow corner to corner, a kind of rhythm.
Bad photoshop
