Wheelbase

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Wheelbase covers the world of motoring.

Tonight a profile by Barrie Gill and Maxwell Boyd of 'Flying Scot' Jackie Stewart, fastest man in grand prix racing and motor sport's best-paid driver. Do his world-wide business interests, his own motor shows all over Europe and his much-publicised home life in Switzerland now threaten to overshadow his skill in the driving seat? What sort of home life does he have with only six days to himself a year?

Michael Frostick reports from Turin on the car of the week, the new Fiat 127, and test-drives this economical Italian family saloon in the foothills of the Alps.
