World Motocross Review 2009

From the thick mud of Italy to the thrilling finale in Brazil, the 2009 FIM World Motocross Championship delivered one of the most spectacular seasons of bar-to-bar racing ever.

Now you can enjoy the vital highlights from every Grand Prix as you follow both the MX1 and MX2 title battles to the bitter end in this fantastic 2-disc Official Review

The best action-packed footage - including breathtaking sequences captured by helmet-mounted cameras - charts every moto from all 15 GPs, plus, there’s expert circuit guides from Paul Malin and interviews with all the stars.

This was a sensational year of mud-spitting, high-jumping competition, with numerous first-time winners, including Ken Roczen, Jeremy van Horebeek and Zach Osborne, the youngest-ever Grand Prix victor and an incredible five rounds before 2009 saw its first double GP winner in either class!

Reigning MX1 champion David Philippaerts endured a miserable season, but kept in touch with the title charge thanks to some flashes of brilliance - not least his outstanding victory in Great Britain. Antonio Cairoli’s domination in Turkey put him in pole position for the MX1 crown, but he would be chased all the way by countryman Philippaerts and Max Nagl, whose unbelievable late season charge ensured a gripping climax to the showdown.

As the title battle raged, fans were delighted by the moto-winning exploits of MX1 stars like Tanel Leok, Ken de Dycker, Jonathan Barragan and Clement Desalle - plus an emotional victory for Steve Ramon as he continued his recovery from a career-threatening injury.

Marvin Musquin, Gautier Paulin and Rui Goncalves set the early MX2 championship pace, but at the mid-way point of the season, Frenchman Musquin stepped it up a gear to become the first MX2 rider to dominate a weekend in 2009.

Just when it looked like Musquin had the title in his grasp, Goncalves put together two GP-winning weekends and took advantage of his rival’s misfortune to set-up a thrilling championship showdown in Brazil. MX2 fans were also treated to class performance from the likes of British star Shaun Simpson, Steven Frossard, Anthony Boissiere and many more of the world’s greatest dirt bike riders.

The Official Review brings you comprehensive coverage of every edge-of-the-seat round, and the full story of both championship battles.

Joey Dunlop The TT Wins

"This is almost certainly the ultimate Joey Dunlop DVD" Streetfighters

William Joseph Dunlop, O.B.E, M.B.E. - Isle of Man TT legend and the undisputed King of the Mountain.

This is the most comprehensive collection of action-packed race footage celebrating Joey’s victories at the TT ever gathered together. After an exhaustive search of our own and many other producers’ archives - as well as a worldwide appeal for footage - we bring you exceptional highlights from a staggering 24 of Joey’s record-breaking 26 TT wins.

While we have been unable to trace any race footage from his first win - the 1977 Jubilee TT - and the 1984 Formula One, the incredible film we have located charts a TT record which is unlikely ever to be bettered.

It shows Joey as a young charger, challenging and beating stars like Mick Grant and Roger Marshall, the ‘big bike’ glory years when Joey scored six F1 wins in a row and his domination of the 125cc and 250cc classes in the 1990s. We are reminded of how 'Yer Maun' overcame injury, horrendous weather, a missing exhaust and even a sunken boat to claim victory after victory, and stunned the racing world in 1995 when, as a 43-year-old, he won the Senior TT on the Honda RC45 - his first big bike win for almost a decade.

Share the excitement as he sees off young challengers like Carl Fogarty, Steve Hislop, David Jefferies and John McGuinness, remaining as determined as ever to add to his record-breaking tally of wins. In 2000, at the age of 48, he defied all the odds to take three TT wins in a week for the third time - the first man to achieve this incredible feat - and his seventh F1 victory after what many believe to be his greatest ever ride. Tragically this was to be his final TT, but it was a fitting end to Joey’s amazing relationship with the awe-inspiring Mountain Course.

Joey Dunlop - The TT Wins brings you action-packed highlights, including on-board footage, from these and many more history-making moments. Along the way we hear from Joey and his rivals, including brother Robert with whom he enjoyed some of his toughest battles in the Ultra-Lightweight TTs.
