1976 FIA Formula One World Championship Season Review
Formula One 1976 Review - Hunt for the Title is the DVD review of the 1976 Formula 1 season. This was the year when Britain's James Hunt, in the McLaren, amazingly clinched the Formula One Drivers Championship during the final Grand Prix of the season in Japan. The reigning Champion, Niki Lauda in the Ferrari, started the 1976 season as the favourite for the Championship. His nearest rival, Emerson Fittipaldi, made the patriotic switch from McLaren to the Brazilian funded Copersucar team. This left a hole at McLaren... it was filled by the ambitious British hopeful with the playboy image, James Hunt, to set the scene for a dramatic season of racing.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

If you love cars then I promise you you are going to love Havana Motor Club.This film captures an interesting part of Cuban Culture I had no knowledge about. Havana Motor club's focus is on organizing the first legal car race in the country since the rebellion in 1958.It was beautiful watching this film, seeing what a beautiful country Cuba is, watching these car lovers put together these classic machines with the limited resources they have, and listening to those machines war. Amazing.My favorite part thought was watching the male egos of the drivers (and the driver's overbearing fathers in some cases) gloat over who's car was the best, but I must admit, they had some great cars to be proud of.Absolutely wonderful documentary and an incredible inside look on Cuba.
