Hammond meets Moss: now on DVD

Posted by TopGear.com at 4:34 pm on Tuesday November 9, 2010
We�d be in dereliction of our duty at TopGear.com if we didn�t point out that Hammond�s rather moving BBC4 documentary from this year will be released on DVD next week.
If you missed it, here�s what it�s all about (and here�s where you can click to pre-order the DVD):
�Sir Stirling Moss: the name still carries the weight of legend, 60 years after a terrible crash ended his career as a racing driver. Shortly after the crash in which he acquired brain injury, was in a coma for a month and partially paralysed down the left side for six months, Stirling asked for a racing car to be delivered to Goodwood. He drove it and decided that he had lost the reactions and instinctive ability that had put him at the top. And he decided, that day, in 1963, to walk away from the sport that he had helped put on the map as an international phenomenon.
�Still today, �Who do you think you are, Stirling Moss?�� is a question asked of anyone who thinks they might be handy behind the wheel. But why did Stirling walk away? What had changed? What was it about his brain that gave him the edge before the crash and what had changed afterwards? What is it about the racing driver�s brain and mind that puts them at the front of the field?
�Richard Hammond, himself no stranger to head injuries, engages with Sir Stirling in a frank, honest and on occasion, downright uncomfortable talk about the mind, the brain and brain injury. And through it, the two survivors cast light on legend, hurt, recovery and what it might be that makes any of us special or talented at what we do.�
