Just stumbled across this fabulous look at the 1957 Italian GP. More behind the scenes stuff than track action so will probably appeal to "makers" rather than racers.
No idea who the recorder is but seems to know the scene well. Despite the header, the commentary is in English.
If video not working for you try on YT -

Enjoy !!

Nice video. Was it 1958 that Vanwall won the constructor's championship?

Yo Jason,
Just checked and yes 57/58 was a good time for Vanwall. I didn't know that they won the Championship so was surprised to see your comment. I now now that they produced a rear engined car - must be on some scratchbuilder's list, perhaps Andi Rowland after his much lauded Vanwall build a few years ago.

I'd never heard of the rear engined Vanwall before. Thanks.
