“In our time and our life now, we are really witnessing something special.”
In the final Episode of Season 2, the riders reveal their dreams and ambitions as we ask “what is their end goal” at the Isle of Man TT?
What would the world’s greatest road racers be happy to walk away with? We revisit the King of the Mountain theory, the elusive all-time wins record that has been standing for almost a quarter of a century, and we reflect on one of the greatest comeback stories in the history of sport.
STEWART is the compelling documentary film on Formula 1 World Champion, team owner and legend of the sport, Sir Jackie Stewart.
Using immaculately restored and previously unseen archive footage, the film charts Jackie’s life from his humble beginnings outside Glasgow, to the rush of excitement that heralded his first F1 World Championship title in 1969, and the darker years of the early 1970s when, despite opposition from those who believed that F1 should be ‘gladiatorial’, Stewart set out to improve racing safety.
Illuminating the terrific highs and desperate lows of a life devoted to Formula 1, Jackie’s story is told as never before, revealing the personal anguish of the fame, glory and success of a champion marred by tragedy, loss and sacrifice.
With unprecedented access to Sir Jackie this intimate portrait also features Jackie’s wife and life-long partner Helen speaking candidly about their “storybook life”.
Written and directed by Patrick Mark (Fabergé: A Life of Its Own), STEWART is an immersive, colourful and powerfully emotive story that transcends motorsport to explore universal themes of love, loss and human vulnerability.
