Great Read: The best – and worst – racing films ever |
August 2016 | Richard Heseltine |
Racing movies can be divisive – we run through the winners and losers for you in one handy list for today's Great Read
For a sport which by its very nature is cinematic, racing sometimes struggles to translate to the big screen.
To go with every stellar performance, there are some back of the grid villains too. Le Mans and Rush took the plaudits in years gone by, while Ford vs Ferrari and F1: The Movie are the new challengers.

Watch cult movie Grand Prix with David Brabham & Alex Brundle |

Motor Sport has joined with Footman James, Scalextric and Classic & Sports Finance for our inaugural Cinema Club evening, giving readers the chance to watch a special screening of Grand Prix, the original F1 film.
But that's not all! The evening also includes an exclusive Q&A session with VIP guest David Brabham, whose father Jack appeared in the film back in 1966. The event is hosted by racer and commentator Alex Brundle.
From the thunder of V12 engines to the incredible shots of Monaco's harbour-front, and the real racing drivers behind the wheel, Grand Prix remains a visceral, high-octane tribute to a golden era of racing - a time when bravery was abundant and safety margins were vanishingly thin.
Now, almost 60 years on, we're bringing it back to the big screen in London in one special night for fans of motor sport and movie magic alike. |
