Le Mans in the lap of the Gods

Engelstalig, regio 2

Jump on board the thrill ride that is Le Mans in this access-all-areas documentary. Directed by John L Matthews (GRAND TOUR D'EUROPE), the film takes you behind the scenes at one of the most exciting sporting events of the year, with incredible 200 miles per hour in-car footage and actual radio transmissions from the drivers. Inspired by the 1970 Steve McQueen classic LE MANS, it follows the story of Martin Short, a man who dreams of entering the Le Mans 24 hours--the hardest, most gruelling race in the world. He's up against some stiff competition in the form of giants Porsche and Audi... and his car's not even ready! Will he make it to the track on time?


"This is such an absorbing pair of programmes, I was fascinated the whole way through, without doubt the best documentary about Le Mans shot since the Speed Merchants."

"Lovely stuff. I can't recommend it more highly. In short it's bloody great - a good job well done. I'm really impressed

It's really a must have - in fact I'm going home to watch it again! (oh and the out take with shorty berating you is mega)'
