Grand Prix

Factual error: The onlookers are eating pears in spring. Wrong time of the year for ripe pears.

Continuity mistake: After Jean Pierre crashes he is helped out of his car. He pulls his goggles part way down as they are now just under his lip and covering his chin. The view then cuts to a closeup of Jean Pierre's face and the goggles are not over his face anymore.

Jean-Pierre Sarti: The danger? Well, of course. But you are missing a very important point. I think if any of us imagined - really imagined - what it would be like to go into a tree at 150 miles per hour we would probably never get into the cars at all, none of us. So it has always seemed to me that to do something very dangerous requires a certain absence of imagination.
