I must admit...

After all the positive comments on the Truth in 24 movie, I was suspect : I
don't follow sports, I don't like "human interest" in racing, I don't care
about men, I care about cars, and this is a movie that was paid for by Audi.
Then I've listen to it. It is indeed quite good, so good that even the
"dramatic" music is not too much nor the close-ups of the highly emotional
people at the end. Nice documentary of the "24 heures", a race that is in a
class by itself. 

 

Now, to add my word about the next Audi move in racing, please don't go in
F1 ! The most advanced vehicle on earth are the endurance prototypes : as
fast as a single-seater, repairable in 20 minutes after a crash (do you know
that the only parts you can't replace during a race are the engine block and
the chassis ?), they must go through night, rain and sun, they are in my
book the most advanced race car as of today. Leave F1 to the glamorous happy
few, real race fans prefer Endurance.
