The second episode in the ‘Valentino Rossi: The Doctor Series’ ventures to one of the most intense, emotional and important Grands Prix on the MotoGP slate: Mugello. In the spectacular Tuscan hills lies the fast and sweeping racetrack at which Rossi has enjoyed and endured some of the finest and most difficult moments of his career.
The 5km asphalt has been home to seven consecutive MotoGP wins and is also an annual festival of colour, noise and ‘fandom-mania’ as Valentino stands at the centre of the whirlwind for three days.
‘Racing Mugello’ follows the man under the brightest and most pressurised of spotlights with insight and comments from his inner circle and group. What is the Grand Premio D’Italia really like for an icon such as The Doctor and the fans that flock to see him? This is Mugello.
STEWART is the compelling documentary film on Formula 1 World Champion, team owner and legend of the sport, Sir Jackie Stewart.
Using immaculately restored and previously unseen archive footage, the film charts Jackie’s life from his humble beginnings outside Glasgow, to the rush of excitement that heralded his first F1 World Championship title in 1969, and the darker years of the early 1970s when, despite opposition from those who believed that F1 should be ‘gladiatorial’, Stewart set out to improve racing safety.
Illuminating the terrific highs and desperate lows of a life devoted to Formula 1, Jackie’s story is told as never before, revealing the personal anguish of the fame, glory and success of a champion marred by tragedy, loss and sacrifice.
With unprecedented access to Sir Jackie this intimate portrait also features Jackie’s wife and life-long partner Helen speaking candidly about their “storybook life”.
Written and directed by Patrick Mark (Fabergé: A Life of Its Own), STEWART is an immersive, colourful and powerfully emotive story that transcends motorsport to explore universal themes of love, loss and human vulnerability.
