Crash and Burn
Crash and Burn chronicles the thrilling and turbulent career of Irish racing driver Tommy Byrne, who rose from a rough, working-class background to the cusp of Formula 1 in the 1980s. Directed by Seán Ó Cualáin, the film explores Byrne's undeniable talent and rebellious personality, which set him apart on the track but also clashed with the conservative and elite world of Formula 1. Byrne’s story is filled with highs and lows, from his dominance in lower racing categories to his brief, rocky stint in Formula 1 and subsequent struggles. The documentary combines interviews, archival footage, and personal insights to portray the complexities of Byrne’s character and his “what could have been” legacy in motorsport.

Whatever It Takes
It’s called “Whatever It Takes.” Why? because Scuderia AlphaTauri does exactly that, whatever it takes, to design, build and develop our cars to race at over twenty race tracks around the world. Filmed from when the team began working on their 2022 challenger up to its initial shakedown prior to the start of the season, the first car to be built to radically reshaped technical regulations, the film crew was a fly-on-the-wall in meetings, in the design office, the wind tunnel, as well as the manufacturing and assembly areas to bring you a truly unique insight into the life of a Formula 1 team and what happens on a day to day basis in the crazy rush to get two cars ready for action in the world’s fastest paced sport.
