It reminds me of Enrico Simonetti, dad of Claudio, the mastermind of Goblin. 
It's not Simonetti, but it sounds very Italian of the 60s to me.

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Sorry, I couldn't resist!!  This is a fine little song, with some excellent guitar playing by Robbie Blunt!

Yes, thank you, I carefully read all comments to this documentary video and I started by listening all the albums by the Dutch band Focus and all available melodies by French composer Alain Goraguer. Neither of them have anything similar. It was a false lead. After that, I moved on to listening to French prog-rock bands. But I had no success there either :(

Thank you for your reply. I first heard this song in this documentary about car racing. Now I'm trying to find the author of this music

Dear progressive rock lovers,

I’m asking for your help. I’ve been trying to find a particular melody/song for many days, but without success. The melody can be heard in this YouTube video (in three parts, timestamps: 2:00, 5:04, and 6:58). 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js5nZ54oyfQ

There is a high probability that it is French prog band (because of this race video was filmed in France). I believe the melody is likely from the 1970s or the first half of the 1980s.

I’ve already listened dozens of French prog bands but haven’t found the one I’m looking for (sometimes some parts sounded a little bit similar, but it wasn’t the right composition). I would be extremely grateful for any advice or help.

Handshake
