Synopsis:: Show moreShow less
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 Peter Revson.
Only a handful of American drivers have made a mark in Formula One, and among them Peter Revson stands out. A cool, stylish figure, and fiercely independent, he was totally committed to the quest for Grand Prix glory. With in depth interviews and archive footage the video covers the all-too brief career of a talented driver who proved himself with two Grand Prix victories.
