The show is executive produced by the team behind the Chicago Bulls docuseries ‘The Last Dance 30 for 30’ on ESPN.
“When you’re at the racetrack, the overall sensory experience, the way it sounds, is intoxicating,” Marty Smith, ESPN reporter says in the voiceover for a teaser trailer released on Wednesday.
“If you’re a race car driver, you have the opportunity to get hurt or killed — but you do it anyway. Think about what a badass that is.”
