A collection of motorsport-themed documentaries. 'Senna' (2010), follows the life and death of Brazilian racing driver and three-time Formula One World Champion Ayrton Senna. The film charts Senna's career from his Formula One debut in the mid-1980s to his tragic death in a crash on the San Marino Grand Prix racing track in 1994, which was being watched live on television by 300 million people. Interviewees include Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher and Jackie Stewart. 'TT: Closer to the Edge' (2011), delves into the history of the Isle of Man Tourist Trophy ('TT') motorcycle race, and asks why TT riders are still willing to risk their lives in their bid to win the world's most challenging and dangerous road race. Finally, 'Fastest' (2011), follows the career of legendary motor cycle racer Valentino Rossi. The Italian, one of the most successful and celebrated motorcyclists of all time, has won a record nine Grand Prix World Championships. In the unforgiving world of sport, however, past achievements count for little. This documentary follows Rossi through the years 2010 and 2011 as he bids to hold off a new batch of fast young racers and attempts to recover from a broken leg sustained in an accident. The narrator is Ewan McGregor.
