Title: Martin Brundle Pre-Race Interview

I really wish we got these pre-race walks Brundle does.  This one is a classic.

To follow up, I wish we also got items like the following from Brundle:

Does anyone remember back to when channel 9 covered the races and AJ would take Eastlake out in a selection of exotics around Eastern Creek, shown after the GP's?  I think it was around 1995-96.  My brother and I used to laugh at how Eastlake would always choose the most inappropriate time to try and ask AJ about the car- he'd be silent down the straight but as soon as the car was tip-toed into the first corner he'd pipe up.  Needless to say the responses weren't incredibly detailed!

Have to admit I do remember those bits...including Jones' putting up with Eastlakes lack of knowledge and over the top exclamations and Jones looking sometimes like he had a few before sitting in on the GP Ch9 show...I bumped into him at a pub or two btw (and remember shaking his hand at his first function on return to Melbourne as World Champion)...I forgave Eastlake as he was a Ferrari nut and AJ for his unforgettable GTV drives. Bravo!
