Good stuff and a great find - I remember seeing this the first time around but watching it back now... well - Health and safety execs would have a field day at the blatant lack of high vis jackets, goggles and ear protection........ the good ol' days when actual individuals were responsible for themselves

I Also remember the first documentary on Equinox on channel 4 back in 1987 when Benetton were using the Ford V6 turbo. Anyone spot Ross Brawn on there back when he was a lad?
Ultimately the change in regs back to 3.5L n/a engines spelt the end for the V6.
Bit of a pity as it never ever showed its true potential
