Engineering the World Rally - Season 1 Episode 5 Japan… Under Pressure
The Subaru team is faced with what is, politically, the most important rally – the 'home' event in Japan. In addition to the added pressure for victory at the manufacturer's home rally, the team confronts a stream of press conferences, public relations events and high level meetings between team leaders and Subaru. While all this is going on, one man has a different fight on his hands. Driver Chris Atkinson's contract runs out the day after the rally and he's fighting for his place in the team. His bosses make it clear they are considering all options. Japan is Chris' last chance to show he has the potential to be a future racing star.
