MK wanted to go into this big time but the racing community did not like this "upstart with cash". Anyway after they "took him out" a few times he was told that he should "stick to his world". The only guy that befriended him was Stefan Johannsen.
He never was a natural on the track and I am glad he stopped competitive racing...what we see above is playing..not racing. If he had persisted with real car racing he would no longer be with us.
It would be so awesome to have Mark Knopfler on an episode of Top Gear!

Great documentary but the tone is like they're talking about world hunger or something, quite dark.

Where is Part 2! Knopfler is such a cool guy.
From when Speed was cool and actually featured racing.
