All of this feels like a great challenge to go and revisit my archive of early(ish) Le Mans highlights footage and document which versions I have (there's got to be a metadata field there for that right?).
On a sort of related note, the shorter review videos are a lot more consumable than the more recent Duke 4 hour productions - and I suspect are more likely to convince someone to maybe go to the event. The Duke videos, beautifully produced as they are, provide nothing in terms of context to the ingenue, and even for the die hard such as me, present an often unpalatable volume of coverage (realistically when do any of us have a four hour run at things to watch footage?).
