Apologies if this is old hat to some of you.  I enjoyed it and wanted to share.

I remember seeing this in 1975. 
A few weeks later I woke up in hospital with a smashed arm and few other things (collapsed lung, fractured skull).  I remember thinking, oh, that's OK, Barry Sheene was riding again after 6 weeks!
Six weeks later I was only just leaving hospital, but I've had some great motorcycling since then and I still like to think that Barry helped me through it!

 Can't remember if this detail was in the movie . Sheene was wearing a Gary Nixon T-shirt under his leathers when he crashed at Daytona , and racers being superstitious , he wore a Nixon T-shirt every time he raced from then on .
