    A Guide to the ’60s Style of Grand Prix

    Grand-Prix-Style-Guide-Gear-Patrol-Lead-Full
    When John Frankenheimer’s ’66 film Grand Prix debuted in theaters, the film wowed audiences and critics alike with its front-seat cinematography and dramatic portrayal of global sports stardom. In the real world, Formula 1 was entering its prime, an unprecedented spectacle of glamor, prestige and danger. Frankenheimer, who would later direct Ronin, famously shot Grand Prix with Super Panavision 70 in an effort to capture the visceral spirit of the sport, going on to win three Academy Awards in the categories of sound and editing. Considered one of the greatest car movies of all time, it also happens to be a menswear reference guide for cosmopolitan cool, when racers matched their sweaters to Ferraris and kicked back with the likes of Françoise Hardy. Formula 1 has never looked so good.
