Irish Rally Spectator Safety piece & Bertie Fisher retirement interview Part 1

Irish Rally Safety piece & Bertie Fisher retirement interview, broadcast on RTÉ Sports Stadium the weekend before the 1986 Circuit of Ireland Rally.

The first part of the piece shows clips and talks about spectator safety on rallies at home and abroad, including a clip of the aftermath of a WRC round in 1986 where several people were killed.

The second part of the piece shows Michael Lyster, Sports Stadium presenter, interviewing Bertie Fisher both about spectator safety and his own accident (or, his avoidance of an accident as such) on the Galway International Rally in 1986 which prompted his semi retirement from rallying.
