- MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: British Grand Prix - Colour. DESCRIPTION: Silverstone - setting for the British Grand Prix Motor race and Mecca, this year 100,000 enthusiasts from Great Britain and the Continent. A field of 25 top names was there to fight it out around the famous Northamptonshire circuit for valuable World Championship points. And £40,000 prize money - it was our richest Grand Prix ever. The flying Scotsman Jackie Stewart, took the lead in the fourth lap....and that’s where he stayed to take the chequered flag in a record breaking one hour thirty one minutes, thirty one point five seconds. The 1969 World Champion is now well out in front in this year’s World Title battle with four out of six Grand Prix wins. SHOTLIST: SV Silverstone sign pan to cars. GV cars in traffic jam.
