Show Notes

Despite being relentlessly marketed as a film shot in tandem with the actual racing season, "F1: The Movie" is technically not based on a true story. But since I desperately wanted the chance to hold this latest attempt by F1 to prove how exciting it is to account, I thought it best to take a look at one of its most famous rivalries. Sports films are often hit or miss - depending on how much the production can resist the urge to forcefeed us an underdog story, but did Ron Howard manage that without bending the truth? Was there such anamosity between Lauda and Hunt? And what is the point of a fictional film, if it doesn't offer anything new? Join us to find out on That's Not How It Went Down!
