The Official Review of the 2001 World Rally Championship released on DVD

Just a handful of years ago Britain had not one, but two leading drivers at the top of the World Rally Championship standings – Colin McRae and Richard Burns.

In 2001, they led the way, taking the battle for the title right down to the last round of the 14-event season – setting up a championship showdown on home soil.

Now this dramatic year of rallying, and the almost unbelievable climax, can be relived again with the Official Review of the 2001 World Rally Championship on DVD.

Follow the action from the historic special stages of Monte-Carlo to the forests of Wales as British heroes McRae and Burns take on the best in the world, and beat them.

As well as incredible action and shocking crashes from every round of the season, this review shows two of Britain’s finest sportsmen demonstrating the style and skill which won them legions of fans, and ensured their memories would live on after their tragic deaths.

This is a chance to see 1995 World Champion McRae giving his usual 100 per cent commitment, with a determination that would see him win – or roll the car trying!

Viewers can also celebrate the calm approach of young Englishman Burns, whose season-long consistency made him a title contender as the championship reached the Rally of Great Britain.

It was this difference in driving style that would ultimately decide the destination of the 2001 crown, as the many millions who followed the tension-filled event will recall.

The Official Review of the 2001 World Rally Championship is not just a comprehensive and action-packed look back at an awesome season of rallying, complete with breathtaking in-car footage, but also a celebration of two much-missed British heroes.
