RPM will not only focus on grand prix racing . Earlier this year it bought the archive of Barrie Hinchliffe Productions, which, from the early seventies to the mid-nineties, pioneered the coverage of world championship rallying and the British Touring Car Championship on programmes like BBC Grandstand and ITV World of Sport.
The acquisition gave access to coverage of 113 World Championship rallies, mainly from the spectacular Group B years, along with over five seasons of early coverage from the British Touring Car Championship as well as some hidden gems such as behind the scenes footage of the early karting days of Lewis Hamilton.
Material researched, sourced and licenced through RPM has already found its way into forthcoming documentaries as well as branded content films for organisations such as UBS. An increasingly wide-ranging library of content hosted on RPM’s cloud-based portal makes for swift and easy access to footage at a pace modern content makers expect.
RPM has also worked closely with Motor Sport as a media partner to source rare footage which we are using to celebrate our 100th anniversary.
