Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Brühl star in Ron Howard's fact-based drama about the intense rivalry between 1970s racing drivers James Hunt and Niki Lauda.
The characters of the principal challengers for the 1976 Formula One championship title couldn't have been more different - Hunt was a flamboyant Englishman with a hedonistic lifestyle and a supermodel wife, Suzy Miller; while the blunt Austrian Lauda was a more methodical tactician - but both were equally skilled drivers. However, exciting as it was, motor racing in the 70s could be a lethally dangerous sport, and a horrific crash will have a deep impact on the Hunt/Lauda title race.
