JACKIE STEWART
UK, 2023, Documentary, 95 mins
Cast: Jackie Stewart, François Cevert, Jochen Rindt, Helen Stewart
This documentary shines a light on Formula 1 World Champion, team owner and legend of the sport, Sir Jackie Stewart.
Using previously unseen footage, Sir Jackie’s life is detailed from his early years in Scotland, to the rush of his first F1 World Championship title in 1969.
Stewart's fame and success was followed by tumultuous times when, despite opposition from those who wanted F1 to be ‘gladiatorial’, Stewart set out to improve racing safety for drivers and pit crews.
Whether you're a new fan or a lifelong F1 fanatic, this stunning documentary is worth your time. - Race Fans magazine

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
