La Carrera Panamericana is a 1992 video of the Carrera Panamericana automobile race in Mexico.

The film was directed by Ian McArthur, and included a soundtrack entirely of music by the band Pink Floyd, as the band’s guitarist David Gilmour, drummer Nick Mason and manager Steve O’Rourke competed in the race in 1991.

The film had been broadcast on BBC2 on 24 December 1991.

During the course of the race, Gilmour crashed, and while he was unharmed, Steve O’Rourke (his map-reader and Pink Floyd’s manager) suffered a broken leg.

Mason finished eighth overall with his co-driver, English auto racer Valentine Lindsay.

The music is a combination of previously released Pink Floyd material (re-edited into a soundtrack) and material composed for the video.
