As it’s Mario Andretti’s 75th birthday today, here’s a classic blooper reel clip of him (almost) being interviewed by Andrew Marriott at the 1978 Swedish Grand Prix which went wrong due to several language barrier-related reasons.
This was broadcast on It’ll Be Alright on the Night 2 and features several lengthy interjections from host Dennis Norden…
(If you’re finding it drags a bit, stick with it, the punchline is worth it… Though according to Marriott the bit about the satellite feed isn’t true.)
A bit more about the clip:
@f1fanatic_co_uk I looked younger then. But the It'll Be Alright deal was a stitch up. The interview did happen and ITV opened WofS with it.
