Wheelbase: Two Million Spectators

on BBC Two England

Gordon Wilkins covers the R.A.C. Rally of Great Britain.

This is the size of the crowd estimated to have lined the 2,200-mile route of the last R.A.C. Rally. This year's event, over 300 miles longer, was timed to run through Sherwood Forest, Blackpool, and Silverstone, Croft, Mallory Park and Oulton Park race circuits to give an even wider public the chance to see the world's top drivers in action. Will this grandstand view of Britain's biggest rally weaken opposition to competitive motor sport in this country?
Wheelbase covers the five-day Sun R.A.C. Rally from the start to the finish at London Airport on Wednesday.
