    WRC 2017 Official Review now on Blu-ray for the first time ever.

    Ever get the feeling we’re living in a new golden age of world rallying? We do.

    Let’s look at the evidence:

    Talented drivers? They don’t get much better than Sébastien Ogier, but he’s been pushed hard all season by Jari-Matti Latvala, Kris Meeke, Thierry Neuville, Ott Tänak and, latterly, Esapekka Lappi all of whom have taken round wins.

    Powerful, interesting cars? That’s been the best thing about the 2017 WRC season. With the new rules allowing much more powerful engines and better aerodynamics, speeds have increased and coincidentally everything looks even more spectacular than usual. The amount of time the cars now spend in the air on some events is the best guide to just how fast the crews are travelling!

    Great races? With six different winners at the time of writing the answer is a definitive ‘Yes!’ The iconic stages of the World’s most famous rallies including Monte Carlo, Rallye Finland, Argentina and Sardinia have seen some classic encounters.

    Brilliant review? Of course, and now available on two-disc Blu-ray for the first time ever. Filmed throughout in HD, the Blu-ray version is the best way to fully appreciate the stunning detail, breathtaking footage and occasionally terrifying moments.  Exclusive extra features include awesome full stage on-boards with World Champion Sebastian Ogier, Esapekka Lappi, Thierry Neuville, Ott Tanak and Elfyn Evans.

    The ultimate review of some wonderful sport for your collection.

     

     

    Colin McRae - Rally Legend

    During 2007, a Duke production team was tasked with producing the definitive documentary about Colin McRae

    With full access to all the WRC recordings of Colin's championship years, plus other rally and family archive, director Mark Cross was able to compile the most comprehensive career record yet of this remarkable sportsman. 

    Working closely with McRae Motorsport Ltd, we also had rare and exclusive access to Colin during a hectic year in which he was about to launch his first production rally car, the amazing R4, was contracted to the X-raid BMW team for Dakar 2008, was involved in the launch of the latest version of his hugely successful computer game 'Colin McRae-Dirt' and was seriously considering a return to the WRC.

    The crew also joined Colin driving the R4 in public for the first time at Goodwood and thrilling the crowds in his unique Ford Escort Mk 2 at the Manx National Rally. Finally we were especially privileged to spend two days in Lanark with Colin and his family. Here Colin talked candidly about every aspect of his career and life, his favourite - and not-so-favourite - drives, events, teams and his plans for the future. The result is the critically-acclaimed Colin McRae - Rally Legend.
    This is his story - the story of a true rally legend.
