Macau Grand Prix 2011 DVD - Description
The 45th Macau Motorcycle Grand Prix attracted an all-star line-up and produced a spectacular race in challenging conditions. Now you can relive highlights from throughout practice and the race itself in the official Macau GP review.
Rain saw the practice schedule thrown into chaos, and the Grand Prix delayed and shortened, but a bit of wet weather couldn’t dampen the enthusiasm of the road racing greats. The official review brings you the best track action, including on-bike footage, and interviews in a comprehensive look back at a stunning race.
Ducati-mounted Michael Rutter, chasing a record-breaking 7th Macau GP win, set the pace in qualifying and was clearly the man to beat around the tight and twisting city street circuit. However, Ian Hutchinson, in his first race for more than year following a career-threatening injury, Isle of Man TT legend John McGuinness and Rutter’s team-mate Martin Jessopp would not give in without a fight.
Get ready for 10 laps of action, with walls and the familiar yellow and black barriers just inches away, as Yamaha’s Hutchy grabs the hole shot to set up a superb dice for victory on one of the most demanding tracks in motorsport.
DVD extras include extended interviews with Rutter, Hutchinson, McGuinness and Macau newcomer Michael Dunlop.
Plus, this DVD includes coverage of the incident-packed Formula 3 Macau Grand Prix. There’s practice action, interviews and highlights from both the 10-lap qualification race and the 15-lap Grand Prix as the rising stars of racing, including Marco Wittmann, Daniel Juncadella, Robert Mehri Felipe Nasr, do wheel-to-wheel battle. Get set for wrecked cars, dented barriers, audacious overtaking and outstanding racing as the Macau GP makes and breaks reputations.
"The 45th Macau Motorcycle Grand Prix was, thanks to some rain, even more eventful than usual. It's one of those races that nobody watches live, because it's in China, but is well worth catching via the annual Duke DVD. This field is dominated by road racers and BSB riders getting a bit of sunshine (usually) at the end of the season, on a demanding four-mile street circuit. The DVD has a useful blend of race commentary, history of the event, pocket profiles of the riders and insights into the unique challenges the circuit presents. There's some good onboard footage with Michael Rutter on his way to win number seven, six years after his last win. Four stars" Ride
