Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Paul Stark and young Joe Massi, two rally drivers, are rivals in the race, but that's not all: Paul discovers that his wife Sandra and Joe are having an affair. In a Safari Rally in Kenya, the two teammates are competing for the lead. Paul refuses to accept this and tries to boycott the race, but Joe participates anyway.
