Indy, F1 style.

Rating: Null/10 (19 July 2001)

Personally i loved this movie and thought it was a well deserved follow up to Grand Prix. Even though this movie is mode about the CART series, the characters seem to be based upon members of the F1 crowd. For example: Beau Brandenburg is clearly based on f1 star Michael Schumacher even without mentioning the red suit not to mention the temper and attitude. Jimmy Bly seems a bit like 97 f1 champ Jacques Villeneuve , who amazingly won 4 Grand Prix that season ,during his rookie campaign, when Schumacher was defending his back to back titles , and oddly enough Bly's car owner is wheelchair bound and bears a striking resemblance to Villeneuve's boss who happen to be the one and only Frank Williams who is also in a wheelchair. When you make a racing movie you can't leave out a character resembling the late great Ayrton Senna. Which in this case is played by Cristian de la Fuente as Memo Moreno who happens to have a horrific crash and is almost killed. Actually Moreno was originally supposed to be killed but CART refused to let any of the drivers die in the movie so he was close to death.
