약력

From Wikipedia John Michael Hawthorn (10 April 1929 – 22 January 1959) was a British racing driver. He became the United Kingdom's first Formula One World Champion driver in 1958, whereupon he announced his retirement, having been profoundly affected by the death of his teammate and friend Peter Collins two months earlier in the 1958 German Grand Prix. Hawthorn also won the 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans, but was haunted by his involvement in the disastrous crash that marred the race. Hawthorn died in a road accident six months after retiring; he was suffering from a terminal illness at the time.

페라리: 불멸을 향해 달리다

Himself

모터 레이싱의 황금기였던 1950년대. 자동차와 드라이버는 그들의 한계로 내몰렸고, 세계 챔피언쉽은 단 한 번의 작은 실수로도 생명을 잃을 수 있는 시기였다. 매 주 일요일마다 새로운 챔피언이 탄생하고 또한 몰락했지만, 그 중에서도 엔조 페라리의 스쿠데리아 페라리 팀이 겪은 사건만큼 비극적인 사건은 없었다. 크리스 닉슨의 베스트셀러 전기를 원작으로 한 이 영화는 피터 콜린스와 마이크 호손을 중심으로 모터 레이싱의 세계를 뒤흔든 격동의 시대에 일어났던 사랑과 상실, 승리와 비극을 이야기한다.

Mike Hawthorn: On the Limit

Himself

One of the new, eager, racing fanatics leading Britain's charge to the top of the motorsport world was the charismatic, handsome and debonair Mike Hawthorn. Racing for iconic names such as Jaguar and Ferrari, and sporting his trademark bow tie, shock of wavy blonde hair and with his flamboyant driving style, Hawthorn captured the imagination of motorsport fans across the country. As fast as he raced on the track, Hawthorn lived just as fast off it with his social antics becoming the stuff of legend and there was always a woman or two under his arm.
