Talking Porsche Sat, Aug 21 PST 8:00PM

Victory By Design

Following the success of the original “Victory by Design” Porsche and Ferrari shows, four more programs were commissioned – Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Jaguar and Maserati.

Alain de Cadenet, as host/driver, and Tony Maylam, director/writer of the series, explain how they go about sourcing the most important cars in each marque, and then take those cars to a range of challenging and exotic locations in both the United States and Europe.

Over a year in the making, the new series of “Victory by Design” encompasses the latest in production technology, utilizing a range of advanced camera and sound techniques to heighten the excitement of seeing some of the world’s most important and dramatic racing machines being driven on the limit.

Alain de Cadenet is a lucky, lucky man. Have a look at the Ferrari show and tell me you'd not kill to be in his shoes for a day

All of the shows are really well put together.

You are very right, it would be such a blast to be in his shoes.

Can you imagine driving all of those cars, that most of us just get to see.

I watched one show were it was all about the production of the series, it seems to be very labor intensive.

It so perfect when he drives the cars, it is very inspiring .

The scenes are very majestic, it's laid out in a way that would bring the most fun out of driving them.
