“It was time that we had to do something radical.” Netflix has revealed an official trailer for Untold: The Race of the Century, another new sports history doc in the ongoing “Untold” series on Netflix. We also recently featured the trailer for Untold: The Rise and Fall of AND1 about streetball and the AND1 league. A chronicle of the thrilling 1983 America’s Cup, Race of the Century is a classic underdog story. It tells the tale of the scrappy group of Australians who band together to dethrone the New York Yacht Club, and break the longest-running win streak in history — 132 years! — in the most prestigious sailing competition in the world. Key members of the 1983 U.S. and Australian crews sit down for interviews sharing their experience of this ultimate race to victory. The doc will increase your heart rate as we watch one Australian team come together to take down this 132-year winning streak. This looks radical indeed! Nothing like a good underdog story taking down some snobby Americans. I don’t know anything about yacht racing, but I will be watching.
Here’s the official trailer for Netflix’s doc Untold: The Race of the Century, direct from YouTube:
