Hitting the Apex

7.7 2015 Movie Documentary

The inside story of six fighters – six of the fastest motorcycle racers of all time – and of the fates that awaited them at the peak of the sport. It's the story of what is at stake for all of them: all that can be won, and all that can be lost, when you go chasing glory at over two hundred miles an hour – on a motorcycle. But this documentary is also an opportunity to understand the passionate relationship that links the pilots, the technical teams and the legions of fans to the spirit of GP Moto.

The most high powered and high profile motorcycle Championship in the world never fails to deliver on the promise of a thrilling season. With Marc Márquez and Andrea Dovizioso in the hunt for the title with just two rounds to go how could it be anything other than exciting? Five winners in a season might not be approaching 2016’s thriller for sheer diversity but it certainly isn’t giving anything away in the drama stakes. The Ducatisti have had a particularly nervy season with Dovizioso becoming the first Ducati rider to lead a championship since Casey Stoner in 2009. Could we see the fairytale ending they so crave (and deserve)? However the result turns out you can be sure the Review will be an absolute stormer, packed with three hours of the very finest highlights, showing all the important moments as the leaders battle for every vital advantage in the title chase.

The official 2003 MotoGP™ review covers all the highs and lows, speed and action from another blistering season of Grand Prix racing for you to enjoy. Trackside and on — bike cameras capture the awe — inspiring skills of the riders as they push each other to the absolute limit, race after race. In 2002, everything Valentino Rossi touched turned to gold, but in 2003 it was never going to be that easy. Competition was fierce, with Max Biaggi, Sete Gibernau and Loris Capirossi all determined to claim the World Championship title from the Italian superstar. Rossi got the better start with a win in Japan, but Gibernau was quick to respond with victory at round two. Rounds seven and eight saw The Doctor drop back, opening the door for Biaggi, Capirossi and Gibernau to claw back points. With the pressure mounting, Rossi needed to display the magic and talents that seemed so effortless in 2002 — and he duly delivered. If it’s action and speed you are after, then look no further.

When the 2008 MotoGP season burst into action, it had been two years since Valentino Rossi had ruled as the World Champion - both 'The Doctor' and his Yamaha team had had enough of being second best. The second year of the 800cc era saw the tables turned, as Rossi imposed his speed, skill and personality on the championship. He emerged triumphant, dominating 2007 World Champion Casey Stoner and the rest of the 18-strong field as he raced to victory after victory, and yet another World Championship. Throw in the added spice of four ultra-quick rookies with a total of five World Championships between them - Jorge Lorenzo, James Toseland, Andrea Dovizioso and Alex de Angelis - and MotoGP 2008 took motorcycle racing to a new level.
