Customer Reviews

Another good year!
Another good F1 review DVD. Includes a build up for each GP as well as quali and race highlights. Both the quali and race highlights make good use of team radio and often include clips that were never shown on ITV- including a particularly amusing moment after a very bad pitstop for McLaren in Canada (I think??) where Ron Dennis goes off on one saying " ****! Why do we bother planning things if they don't work?". Also there are occasional insight pieces such as the breakdown of the many stages of fuelling of an F1 car by the Red Bull Racing team (see China GP coverage). And for the first time they have included some extras including a season preview and some interviews as well as a tribute to Michael Schumacher.

Great review, great season
Very pleased with this DVD. Easy to navigate around, contains special features including a tribute to Schumi. Didn't get it untill now after pre-ordering it which was a bit disappointing but the quality of the DVD made up for it. Here are some of the positives and negatives(if any)

Positives
-Everything you need from the 2006 season.
-Includes more action from qualifying.
-Better on-board shots.
-Ben Edwards commentary!!!!!
-Better all-round action.

Negatives
-Could have included more post race action.

So as you can see I really found this DVD a treat before christmas. Now all thats left is to buy the Formula One Yearbook. Buy this if you are a Schumi/Alonso whatever fan. Buy from Amazon for best price(when compared to grand prix legends, cdwow ect,)

The best Season Review in Years!
Hurrah! At last we have a really meaty season DVD! The problem I've found with previous season's are that we spend too long showing the pits or what the city of "insert track location here" is like and not enough race action. This dvd takes things back to reviews of the old early 1990's style showing battles up AND down the field, behind the scenes workings of the teams, some qualifying dramas (more would have been nice though) and even some bonus features such as interviews with Super Aguri Racing.

The review itself is over three hours long which is great and almost everything of importance is here. Ben Edwards is still a great commentator and does well to inject some excitment back into things too. Let's hope the seasons to come are treated the same way as this steller effort!
