Rush is a cinema based on a true story. It was 1970, FIA Formula One World Championship, the highest class of single-seater auto racing in the world. One of the player is a playboy, James Hunt. Another one is a sophisticated man, Niki Lauda. Not only in the racetrack, but also in their private life, they are totally different kinds of people. 

They have competed in lots of races. But at the Nurburgring one, due to the machine problem, the car was burned. After it, Niki's face was disfigured.

It is an inspirational movie. The process how Niki battle was really impressed. It is worth watching in the movie theater.

What is happening in this clip?

This clip is describing the accident that made Niki's face disfigure. I was astonished when I saw it. The background of this clip was that because the weather was terrible, every players decided to use the tires for the rainy days. However, the speed of the tires were much slower than the normal one, so all players decided to change to the normal one when the sun appeared. Niki was, too. But when he was changing the tires, some players passed him. In order to win others, he accelerated to the most. But what a pity, there was something trouble to the car. The car burned. And then he was unable to participate in the game for 6 weeks.
