Fair warning: I know very little about my topic, which is Rush, the new movie set in the 1976 F1 season. We’ll see it shortly, and I’m keen to. My wife even intends to buy the DVD.

This movie matters to all of us in motorsports. By early accounts, it’s a good representation of racing as it really is. About time. We enthusiasts still revere the likes of Grand Prix and Le Mans, but you know how long ago they came out.
