This important new series, narrated by Sir Stirling Moss, recalls the real personalities of an amazing era, the men whose antics on and off the track made them heroes to millions - and not always just to race fans. Created by Brunswick Films, which was behind the 1970-79 Grand Prix Collection, each video profiles a racing great, with action footage and period interviews from the Brunswick archive which reveal why these names still cause excitement today. They are not detailed life stories, but celebrations of the driving skills and colourful characters which defined a motor racing era. This video focuses on Mario Andretti.
Mario Andretti became one of the most versatile racing drivers of all time in a career spanning five decades. Making his Grand Prix debut in 1968 he spent the next 14 years jetting across the Atlantic to compete in Formula One. This video covers the F1 career of a fiercely competitive racer, with in-depth interviews with one of the most successful all-round American drivers in motorsport history
