Audi took a crew from NFL Films to Le Mans in 2008. Today, for free, you can enjoy the full 92 minutes of the documentary, Truth in 24, which emerged as a result.
Chock-full of fabulous soundbites from the likes of engine-builder Ulrich Baretzky, 'secret weapon' engineer Howden Haynes and eight-time Le Mans winner Tom Kristensen, the film covers the lead-up to the big race of the year and takes an in-depth look at the behind-the-scenes activity needed to contest the French classic, as well as some of the nail-biting last-minute strategic decisions that separate the winners from the also-rans.
Don't worry, there's plenty of incredible race footage, too, all available in tasty half-HD.
According to a report at Autoblog.com, Audi is revving up a sequel, Truth in 24 II. This time around, there's supposed to even more footage from Le Mans, so stay tuned!
Apple fans can download the full film via iTunes.
