Venezuela's Alcohol-Fueled 900-Mile Speedboat Race - VICE

Most people blame the Venezuelan government for the country's profound economic and humanitarian crisis, but the government blames the elite.

VICE's Charlet Duboc drank, danced, and chatted with the race's oldest hands before meeting up with an indigenous, impoverished community for a look outside Venezuela's upper echelon.
