Being a huge McQueen fan and pretty much planning my entire year around Le Mans, you're damn right I'm looking forwards to this!

I hope they don't try to glorify McQueen like they did with Ayrton in the Senna docu-movie though. McQueen was very single minded, reckless and by all accounts an absolute bastard when he was making Le Mans.

He was a fascinatingly complex individual, but he was also very heavily flawed. That film seemed to bring out the very worst of his flaws, both professionally and in his personal life and need to be covered honestly, without rose tinted glasses and without bias.
