The guy in Australia who played his father and was instructing when the student crashed, one of the writers in road accident, and this guy who was the stunt double for Lauda's actor.

Wow

Yeah went with son to see it before Xmas.

Did you like it? I did, it was enjoyable, but didn't blow me away or inspire me the way i hoped. Although my expectations were a little high maybe.

Certainly wasnt the greatest movie but I thought it did a good of showing a little of what happened. Def could have been better and would have been nice to have seen some other key events in there but I was pretty happy with it. Love the look of the cars from the 70's which made it easy to watch no matter what!

Love having Montoya back in IndyCar. Can't wait till May with the 500 in my back yard. Montoya will be a factor often whether good or bad I dunno. I love listening to him on the radio. I could see Montoya contending on some ovals this year, but IndyCars are for the young these days and Montoya is an old man per se. He will also need seat time to get back into the groove. The 2-day back2back duals will be hard on him as will road courses everywhere. I would not suggest anyone place a future on Juan to win a title, though. Good luck Gentlemen.

Ryan Newman. As a good value longshot.

That comment surprised me too. I don't see Marcos being happy with an oval win then disappearing into the sunset.

I think the new chase system will help his long term future though. For a team like Petty (or Front Row perhaps?), a driver like Marcos could provide a ticket into the chase, which has got to be almost priceless for a mid grid team?

I guess. If he wanted to stay any longer if 2014 is oval winless again.
