New doco pays tribute to the man behind McLaren.
LIKE WAR, motorsport accelerates and intensifies the lives of young men, and before the modern era it had a similar attrition rate. You watch the new McLaren documentary knowing that Bruce’s career was compressed into 12 years of Grand Prix racing as a driver, designer, constructor and team manager, five of those with the team that still bears his name. Yet when you see his achievements recounted in this elegant, elegiac film you still wonder how he did it all, and you compare unfavourably your own meagre achievements by the age of 32.
