Reminds me somewhat of Jean-Pierre Massiera's Visitors, but this is more symphonic & less psychedelic than that project.   

Good luck.

Thank you for the explanation. I didn't know this term before. 
Let me guess – the music in these libraries was most likely stored on magnetic tapes (reel tapes), right? 
If you listen closely to the target music, you can hear the distinctive crackling of a needle on a vinyl. This gives me hope that the required song was released on vinyl (and was available for sale, not only for TV's internal usage)

Thanks for your reply.
I have checked Goblin discography one more time. It's wrong direction.

Could you, please, explain me your ideas about Shostakovich? Unofortunately, I can't hear any intersections with the 12th Symphony. Maybe another symphony of the same author?

I would think it was commonly stored that way. There is a lot of library music that also has been released on record. Sometimes many years later. It gives me the feel of music made by someone who would be involved with composing for TV shows / documentaries/ movies. And while some are saying Italian, it seems more French to me.

It may be a French composer, too. In the 60s hey weren't too different from the Italians.

More than anything else, it reminds me of the early Ange, especially with the guitar sound. I can't recall, however, which tune(s) it would be exactly. If that music belongs to Ange, though, I wouldn't be at all astonished if the band decided to give away some of their otherwise unreleased recordings, particularly for that documentary. After all, the 24 Hours of Le Mans was a huge event back then—much bigger than it is today. Even the 1971 Steve McQueen-starring film "Le Mans" depicted a fictional rendition of the 24 Heures du Mans race.


I apologies for the delayed response. Yes, you are right. The melody in target song is not just similar to Ange in terms of the guitar sound. Overall, their sound is quite similar in the albums from (approximately) 1977-78. 
However, unfortunately, I couldn't find the exact melody in Ange's works (I went through their entire discography). 
In any case, thank you for the suggestion
