VIDEO: "1: Life on the Limit" trailer

arrated by Michael Fassbender, "1: Life On The Limit" is a cinematic documentary that channels the speed, excitement and danger inherent in Formula 1's journey from its comparatively humble beginnings in
post-war Britain, through to the game-changing events of the 1976 season recently examined in Ron Howard's feature film "Rush," as well as the untimely death of F1 superstar Ayrton Senna.

"1: Life On The Limit" showcases a world where drivers were akin to rock stars and where safety
definitely wasn't always put first. Utilizing rare archive footage and gathering what the producers claim is the largest and most comprehensive selection of Formula 1 interviews ever collected, the film includes interviews with Sebastian Vettel, Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher, Bernie Ecclestone and Niki Lauda among many others.
