Synopsis
Hitting the Apex (2015) is the documentary you can watch online on iFILM — a look inside MotoGP told through six of the fastest motorcycle racers who ever lived and the price each of them paid for going faster.
Mark Neale directs; Brad Pitt narrates. The film zeroes in on the 2011 to 2013 seasons and the fates of its six riders: Valentino Rossi, Casey Stoner, Jorge Lorenzo, Dani Pedrosa, a rising Marc Márquez, and Marco Simoncelli, whose story ends on the track. The camera goes where the broadcast feed never does — into the garages, the team briefings, the quiet calculations about who will risk more in the final corner.
Neale spent years around the paddock, and it shows: this understands the engineering and the men who simply cannot bring themselves to brake as early as everyone else. It runs a touch long, but it never fakes the danger. Diehard race fans will eat it up, and newcomers finally get why those split seconds matter.
