S2023E23 - Race to Disaster - The Ards TT

In the early 20th century, the Ards TT was one of the greatest spectacles in motorsport. Up to half a million people would line the 13-mile triangular circuit between Dundonald, Newtownards and Comber as some of the world's top drivers duelled around the roads in Northern Ireland. The race was started in 1928 and racing royalty that included Sir Malcolm Campbell, Tazio Nuvolari or Kaye Don would pilot iconic motorsport marques such as Alfa Romeo, Mercedes and Bentley. Speeds kept increasing as the years went by, however, it would all come to a shuddering halt on a fateful wet afternoon in 1936.
