The Caracas. The ultimate South American race

This film documents the "TC Grand Prix of South America", known as "La Buenos Aires-Caracas", a 10 thousand kilometer motor racing race run in 1948 and starring the best Argentine drivers.

The competition is considered the greatest Road Tourism race of all time. A sports epic that describes the social, political and cultural history of the South American continent during that troubled year.
