Rush – the celluloid account of the rivalry between F1 stars Niki Lauda and James Hunt – motored into UK cinemas last week. So to celebrate the release of this really rather brilliant biopic, we’ve written up a list of other sporting rivalries ripe for movie treatment. So from tennis and rugby to basketball and boxing, bad blood runs think between the following sporting titans…
‘Fire & Ice’ is what HBO called its documentary about the rivalry between Björn Borg and John McEnroe, a fitting title for a film about two men who could not have been more different. Borg was a cool, calm and collected Swede, whose long hair, hulking frame and good looks made him something of a heartthrob. McEnroe was skinny, brash and outspoken, arguing with umpires, and frequently throwing on-court tantrums that made him hugely unpopular with crowds at the start of his career.
