Throughout the entire history of Grand Prix motor racing, British drivers have enjoyed an exceptional level of achievement and personal popularity that has etched their names forever in the history books. Now we bring together eight of Britain’s greatest post-war motor racing drivers in a powerful saga that vividly portrays these men who battled their way to the top in the fastest, most dangerous sport on earth.
This exciting and fascinating video focuses on Graham Hill, Mike Hawthorn, Peter Collins, Jim Clark, Stirling Moss, Jackie Stewart, Tony Brooks and James Hunt. Tragically five of the celebrated names - Hill, Hawthorn, Collins, Clark and Hunt - are no longer with us, but their triumphs live on and are captured here with spectacular film clips. With the help of thrilling film sequences, the survivors - Moss, Stewart and Brooks - give you their own dramatic accounts of the heart-stopping moments, the fears, the joys and the sorrows of their brilliant careers.
The story of these 'British Grand Prix Greats' is one of passion, power and pursuit of perfection - and one that should not be missed by any true motor-racing fan!
