Horsepower: Matthew Macfadyen Narrates

Matthew has narrated a TV documentary by Shell & Ferrari that has appeared on Sky Sports as well as in the US, possibly on NBC Sports Network.

You can watch 10 minutes of the documentary in this video.

For a must-see documentary ahead of the new F1 season, Ferrari have granted Sky Sports F1 exclusive access to their inner sanctum as the sport gears up for the complex and groundbreaking 'rules revolution' of 2014 and the Scuderia seek their first world title since 2008.

Widely seen as the first among equals on the F1 grid, Ferrari remain arguably the most famous marque in the whole of motorsport and boast the unique achievement of being the only team to contest every F1 race since the sport's foundation in 1950.

 

Featuring both protagonists in the team's explosive new driver line-up, Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen, 'Horse Power' is the product of unprecedented access to the team's hallowed Maranello base as Ferrari prepare for a season like no other in 2014.

But his most sublime narration happens when he becomes romantically invested (which is remarkably often). “He needs open water to woo his exquisite female,” Macfadyen assures us with odd over-investment in seadragons, “but he can’t rush her; she won’t give up her eggs until he’s proved he’s Mr. Right. He needs to stay cool, turn on the charm, and impress her… fortunately, she likes what she sees.” Matthew Macfadyen, wingman to marine life everywhere.

Why was Matthew MacFadyen the perfect choice to narrate?

We wanted someone who could convey the wonder and awe of our planet and give gravity to the power of the sun but also bring the different characters to life. It’s a lot to ask, but Matthew is a wonderful storyteller, so it was the perfect choice.
