A documentary covering the journey of a two-year-old off-road racer Toby Price jumping on a bike in the bush and going on to become Australia’s first-ever Dakar winner 26 years later will air on Red Bull TV on December 6, 2016.
Price, whose 2017 Dakar preparations were bolstered by winning the last round of the Cross-Country Rallies World Championship in Morocco recently, has had less than an easy road to his historic success and it’s the sacrifices the 29-year old has been forced to make which the film Paying the Price will focus on.
As well as his huge talent, enormous hard work and unprecedented success, the film looks at the events leading up to the 2016 Dakar rally that would have left other competitors out for the count. Be it the broken neck just two years prior to standing on the top step of the coveted Dakar box, the the tragic and successive deaths of both his disabled sister and friend and teammate Kurt Caselli, or the total of 27 broken bones bones during his rise to desert racing glory, the documentary highlights the hero Australia has in off-road racing star Toby Price.
Red Bull has released a short, one-minute teaser of December’s release.
