STARS, CARS AND PLENTY OF DRAMA!

The Race of Champions 2008 Official Review released on DVD

Motorsport legends, an incredible selection of fast cars, awesome racing, displays of World Championship-winning machines and almost 50,000 dedicated race fans – this is The Race of Champions.
In December 2008, the amazing spectacle returned to London’s Wembley Stadium, bringing many of the biggest names in motorsport together to battle to become Champion of Champions.

Now you can relive this unique event with the Official DVD Review, featuring action-packed highlights from the racing, and much more.

The list of participants reads like a who’s who of racing: seven-times Formula One World Champion Michael Schumacher, Sebastien Loeb, fresh from winning a record fifth World Rally championship in a row, three-times World Touring Car Champion Andy Priaulx, three-times World Superbike Champion Troy Bayliss, multiple Le Mans victor Tom Kristensen, NASCAR’s Carl Edwards and Grand Prix stars David Coulthard, Jenson Button and Sebastian Vettel.

They, plus many more stars, went head-to-head on the purpose-built circuit inside the iconic Wembley Stadium in a selection of ultra-fast cars, including the Ford Focus WRC machine, KTM X-Bows, the RX150 buggy, the ROC cars and the stunning Abarth 500.

The Official Review features action from both the Nations Cup, which saw the two-man teams work together, and the Race of Champions, when national pride was forgotten in the hunt for the title Champion of Champions. Both competitions produced some truly edge-of-the-seat racing, and the showdown between Coulthard and Loeb has to be seen to be believed.

Every vital moment and stunning highlight from this exceptional event is featured on the Official DVD Review. There’s also exclusive behind-the-scenes access and interviews with many of the stars.

You can also enjoy the incredible sight – and sound – of 2008 Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton tearing around Wembley Stadium in his title-winning McLaren Mercedes MP4/23. Plus, there’s Coulthard delighting the crowd in his Red Bull F1 machine and highlights from the breathtaking performances of the Red Bull X-fighters and stunt supremos Terry Grant and Chris Pfeiffer.

If you were there, the Official DVD Review is the ultimate record of an unforgettable day at the races – if you weren’t, discover what you missed out on!
