On 17th February 2011 some of the England Rugby squad players competed against a team of print sports media in a series of driving challenges.
It’s been one-way traffic for England so far in their Six Nations Championship campaign, with a total of 10 tries being scored in wins against Wales and Italy. However, the players faced a different challenge at the Land Rover Experience at Longcross. They took some time out from training, got behind the wheel and took on tasks such as the ice mat and blindfold driving. The day had a competitive edge, with the final event being the train line challenge. A team featuring stars such as Ben Youngs and Toby Flood took on another side that featured Chris Ashton, Martin Johnson and James Haskell. So who finished first? Or was driving the real winner? Watch the video to find out.
