    Is is possible to buy old GP's on DVD? entire seasons preferably? I'd love to re-watch the early 90's seasons again!
    I was cleaning out some stuff there at the weekend and i came across some GP's from 1992/3/4 recorded on VHS..I used to record them for whatever reason..cant remember. but those years were classics. Id is possible to buy the entire seasons on DVD somewhere?

    I've every race since somewhere in the region of 84 so could sort something out for you, some are ripped off a VHS from pre 94 but all are of decent quality

    Nice!

    There was a series on ESPN classic before the start of the season of Formula 1 Retro, I checked out the production company and they sell some DVDs of old seasons but they are very expensive, I'll post a link later. Unfortunately there are large portions of old races not really around or accessible, right up towards the end of the 70s.

    Pity Bernie doesn't do what the AFL (and I think the NRL also) in Australia do and have a service where one can order any match/race on DVD.

    You could try ebay.

    Amazon have highlights for all the seasons going back to at least the early 90s. (But they are only highlights)

    People like GPjunkie82 have full length grand prixs up on Youtube split into ten minute sections if you search for them.

    My favourite Grand Prix was when Olivier Panis won the Monaco Grand Prix. The complete Eurosport coverage with John Watson is up on Youtube somewhere.

    FOM or whoever owns the video rights really need to re-release the yearly reviews on DVD. I'm surprised they haven't already.

    I just checked Amazon and they do have quite a few yearly reviews going back to the 80's however most of the ones older than 2005 are on VHS only. I'd like to have them, but there's no point buying a VHS tape at this point where you'll only use it once and even then, it's just to convert it to DVD.

    I wish DUKE video would do the same with the Super Touring years of the BTCC. I've been hounding them about it for years now!
