Armed Forces Rally Team Catch Up With Motorsport Greats

Armed Forces Rally Team members have had the chance to meet some of the greats in motorsport, at the Goodward Festival of Speed.

Nico Rosberg, who's currently battling it out at the top of the F1 Drivers' Championship with Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton, was in attendance along with MotoGP superstar Valentino Rossi.

But as Forces TV's Jon Knighton reports, it was a major logistics challenge just getting to the Sussex festival, with the teams battling it out for their places there only the previous day, all the way up in Scotland.

Six Land Rovers competed in the 70th Scottish event, centred on Dumfries on Armed Forces Day, with a challenging seven special stages in one day, mostly on forest tracks.
