Rush will send you to Silverstone

RUSH chronicles an incredibly fast, and scary time in motorsports.

The film is all about the rivalry between Niki Lauda and James Hunt, the 1976 season, and the story surrounding the dangerous era of Formula One racing.

Up and coming drivers Niki Lauda and James Hunt were both given the opportunity to race in the best cars on the grid, and began a dominating assault on the season. Lauda and Hunt split wins throughout the season, with Lauda edging Hunt in the point standings.

But then, on a rainy day in Germany, Lauda suffered a massive shunt at the Nurburgring that sent him to hospital with severe burns and life threatening injuries.

During his recovery, Hunt closed the gap in the points standings until only weeks after the incident, Lauda got back into the car and challenged Hunt to the very last race of the season.
