The story of Jarno Saarinen - 'a truly brilliant rider'. In Imola 200 you can see why, as he wins both legs of the 'Daytona of Europe' riding only a 350 Yamaha against the cream of 750 superbikes. The racing is close and fast with Mick Grant, Bruno Spaggiari and Barry Sheene.
One month after the 'Imola 200' in 1973, Jarno Saarinen and Renzo Pasolini were tragically killed during the Italian Grand Prix at Monza. In 'Tribute to Saarinen' further insight reveals that many believed he would become one of the greatest ever racers. The award-winning film ends with tributes from his wife Soeli, Phil Read, Rod Gould and Chas Mortimer. If you know your stuff, you’ll recognise that Saarinen was a unique talent and as such this film is well worth owning.
