Video of the Week: Fangio in a Pirelli Commercial

This film--i am thinking probably shown in movie theaters before the main attraction--is from c. 1966, showing el maestro lapping Monza in his 1951 Alfetta 159. Some wonderful sounds and footage.  Gotta love his shiny leather driving shoes when he steps out of the monoposto at the end!

Love the sound of the straight-8 and gear-driven blower whine.
