This is being shared as a torrent, and the link is available here.  It's x264 .mp4 and 1.4gb in size, and I found this as posted on another automotive forum that I frequent.  If you download it, please be sure to seed a bit afterward as well.  Looks to be very good quality.

Keep in mind, the iTunes one is higher resolution at 843x480. If you can get it. If not the BitTorrent one is pretty good at 640x368 although it has a ESPNHD crawler  ::)  across the entire bottom of the frame 99% of the duration that the iTunes one did not. Just FYI.

Thanks Lane, that link seems to be the only way to see it here in the UK.  :tu:

Well worth watching.

This segment is from the Truth in 24. I love his (McNish) enthusiasm and passion as he describes in detail one lap of the circuit. Great stuff and a great documentary.

I wish I was in at the track watching it.

The Truth in 24 was probably the best automotive documentary I've ever seen.  Its a classic.  In the US, it will be shown on Speed TV tonight at 9:00 PM eastern time, 6:00 on the west coast.  I highly recommend it.

I totally agree. It will be permenantly on my DVR till the damn thing breaks. Its one of those rare videos that remind us how great the sport of auto racing truly is.

No need to wait for Speed to air it. Still up on the iTunes store as a free download. Watch it in HD. There's even a game now for iPhone and Touch users.

I've merged the two topics.
