Really touching

"Super Speed" is a superb work based on real-life and real-life racing themes. The two male protagonists are one cautious and the other unruly. They are jealous, envious, despise and cherish each other, and their destinies are inadvertently intertwined. The story is complete, and the two characters are very full. The film’s photography and editing are great, perfectly presenting the charm of competitive sports, very inspirational and touching, the F1 car in the heavy rain is even more beautiful, I recommend everyone to check it out! ps: In the past two years, I especially like these kinds of films adapted from real events!

People who are that desperate to make a mark, and are prepared to die trying. My name is Niki Lauda, and racing people know me for two things. The first is my rivalry with him.

    [James Hunt]

    Niki Lauda: I don't know why it became such a big thing. We were just drivers busting each other's balls. To me this is perfectly normal, but other people saw in differently. That whatever it was between us went deeper. The other thing I'm remembered for is what happened on 1st August 1976, when I was chasing him like an asshole...
