Since its inception Formula One racing has been the epitome
of money, spectacle, glamour and danger; and back in the swinging sixties that
danger could be deadly. F1 racing
drivers didn’t have fireproof suits and wore flying helmets and goggles. Their
attrition rate was high and just watching a race could get you killed. Into this high-octane world drove Phil Hill,
a lone American driver in a sea
of Europeans. Hill’s goal? To race for the legendary Enzo
Ferrari. In this true story Hill battles
racing greats like Fangio, Stirling Moss, Jim Clark and ultimately his Ferrari
team mate Wolfgang Von Trips. Ferrari
pits his two drivers against each other as they battle for the 1961 world championship.
The Limit is a snapshot of a sport that is still a European
obsession.
