well, i had no chance of seeing or knowing of Hunt in his era: in the 70s and 80s soviet official media (and we had no unofficial one then) claimed formula 1 as wild example of capitalists 'chase of profit' with constant human sacrifices, and there was practically no information... so, i became acquainted with the sport only in early 90s - last years of Senna-Prost rivalry. and as i disliked both, i prefered 'the third force' - crazy Nigel at first, Damon later.
well, of course to be denied access to the 'chase of profit' game... such a view seems distorted - and yet, there is some truth; futurism, fascism, fatality, ferrari and formula one. All the 'Fs' have danced down the years together. Which at least makes for interesting history!:))
