I'm trying to get hold of this documentary. Recently released (2016). Seemingly only available in America. Trying to download from Amazon US website prompts for a US card which I don't have. Any ideas? Does anyone know if it's due for release elsewhere?

"The Ford/Ferrari rivalry at Le Mans is one of the most famous in racing history. It started in 1963 when Henry Ford II tried to buy Ferrari to save the ailing Ford Motor Company, which was being crushed by GM and the Corvette on the track and at the dealerships. After months of negotiation, Enzo Ferrari said no, refusing to allow Ford to interfere with what he loved the most: racing. Henry Ford II was furious and vowed to build a racecar that would dethrone Ferrari."

Have you tried chassymedia.com

They produced it, not sure if you need a US-based credit card to buy from them.

It is based on 'Go Like Hell' smile
Saw it, but didn't know the website name, so stayed clear.

Got on download from iTunes in the end.

Seems that downloading it through iTunes was a mistake, as I can't watch it in Jodi (media centre on main TV) due to their DRM restrictions.

Right, best get Googling to sort out this pickle!

Downloading direct from Chassy worked (well, it did the second time, failed the first time and needed resetting to allow a further download).

Took their MP4, moved it to the NAS and it played through the TV.
Brill. Have got my money refunded from iTunes, so will download from Chassy and sit back and watch in the new year!

Mine worked on iTunes? U.K. Account too.
Aye, iTunes, UK account, but I can only watch it through iTunes. My setup runs a programme called Kodi which is connected to my lounge TV.
