Adelaide Motorsport Festival Releases Short Film For '18 Event

Adelaide Motorsport Festival organizers "launched their short film" for the '18 event which highlights int'l and South Australia locations, according to Jesper Fjeldstad of THE ADVERTISER. The event's organizers "are hoping it will be as big as last year’s film," which "went viral" with millions of views. Filming of the clip began in Italy in May with former Formula 1 drivers Ivan Capelli and Pierluigi Martini, who "were prominent when Adelaide had an F1 race." It also has appearances from Bathurst winner Craig Lowndes, British Rally champion Alister McRae, Le Mans winner and former F1 driver David Brabham and Supercars driver Tim Slade. Cars showcased in the film include F1 cars from Ferrari and Leyton House, the hybrid LaFerrari, Adelaide’s Brabham BT62 and a "rally-prepped Mitsubishi Evo." Last year’s film reached more than 2.5 million people around the world. AMF Event Dir Tim Possingham said, "The Adelaide Motorsport Festival itself is a huge success because we bring something new to the event every year. The same can be said for our short film." The full-length film is available on the AMF's Facebook page (THE ADVERTISER, 10/18).
