- The Genius; the 0 wins; the 2.5 wins (2 were @ home);
This is surely US hype for the US market only;
Edwards and Hayden are apparently great blokes, but sadly they haven't set the GP scene alight. (I am so disappointed for the lack of return Edwards has had, yet he is such a talented rider).
Rossi as reported, is not featured heavily.

There are many other DVDs - see Amazon reviews (Faster etc etc )- that are more representative of the 'supermen' who ride these machines.

Rating:

- More Rossi please!
This DVD is excellent, great behind the scenes footage of the riders. However it is mostly the American riders and considering Rossi gets 'top' billing he rarely features in it, compared with the likes of Hayden and Edwards. Commentary by Ewan McGregor is very easy to listen to, as someone who loves his bikes as much as any MotoGP fan.

Rating:

- Average compared to "Faster"
I don't know if I was just having an off day, but I found this DVD rather boring. Having seen its predecessor "Faster" (which I found very enjoyable), and as an avid follower of bike racing events, I wasn't particularly entertained or gripped by the content. It should also be renamed to "The Hopper, The Tornado, and The Kentucky Kid", as the features with Valentino Rossi (aka "the Doctor") are far and few between, with hardly any direct interviews, and what looked like edited clips taken form here and there. It was strange to see so much of John Hopkins given he's not even in the title. I actually went to the MotoGP at Leguna Seca, and having experienced it first hand, I just felt there was something lacking.

Rating:

- Another "Must have" for Moto GP fans
Moto GP comes to California. A great follow up to "Faster" and a wonderful in-depth look at a Moto Gp weekend.

The Film shows John Hopkins, Colin Edwards and Nicky Hayden as they approach their first ever home GP. Some great on and off-track scenes and very candid comments by the riders.

The dodgy sound at beginning was a bit worrying but pretty soon you forget about that and just get engrossed in the action.

I found the second disc a bit useless, but since the main feature and the extras on the first disc are so good I can't complain.

Rating:

- Worth buying, but not as good as 'Faster'
A good synopsis of the return of MotoGP to America in 2005 after an absence of more than ten years. Interesting behind-the scenes footage about Laguna Seca and the riders, but far too much of Hopkins and nothing from Rossi except what is already in the Public domain. Obviously he didn't cooperate with the film's makers this time around (odd because they are relentlessly flattering about his talent), and didn't give any private access. There are some other noticeable omissions too, such as the way the track started to break-up over the weekend, the very negative comments about track safety from some of the riders, and the terrible traffic access for spectators.

Some bad language, and no option to bleep it out for the benefit ... Read More:
