Premise
Blindsided by a new generation of blazing-fast racers, the legendary Lightning McQueen is suddenly pushed out of the sport he loves. To get back in the game he will need the help of an eager young female race technician Cruz Ramirez, with her own plan to win, plus inspiration from the late Doc Hudson.
