Plot: The story of James Hunt (Hemsworth) and Niki Lauda (Bruhl) rise and rivalry in Formula One, One that will never be forgotten and has gone down in history as the fiercest in the sports history. We follow both drivers careers from small time Formula Three to the struggles to make it Formula One until they both get the drives for the big teams proving to the world how good they both are leading to the epic title chase in the 1976 season.
Verdict: A brilliant biopic story of two racing greats
Story: Historical sports dramas are sometimes difficult to give the full justice too. We see how each of them get into racing, challenge their personal lives to get there and what more can you say about the racing scenes breath taking. The fans who were lucky enough to see the excitement unfold live would know the story but for those who didn’t you get a real feel for it. (10/10)
