FANTASTIC FERNANDO!
27 December 2005 - Duke Marketing Ltd

The Official Review of the FIA Formula One World Championship 2005 on DVD and VHS

The FIA Formula One World Championship Review 2005,
from powersport specialists Duke, provides a
comprehensive, round by round account of one of the
most unpredictable championships in years.

2005 saw Fernando Alonso’s climactic rise to become the
youngest driver to take pole position, the youngest race
winner and now, remarkably, the youngest Formula 1 World
Champion ever. This year saw dramatic changes with new
rules and a radical shake up of the old order. Gone is the
Ferrari domination of recent years, the team from
Maranello could only manage the top step of the podium
once this year. Nine different drivers took pole position
and five won races in this recordbreaking season, but the
real story was the battle for supremacy between Renault and
McLaren.

Four consecutive race wins for Renault at the start of the season left McLaren struggling behind, but with Kimi Raikkonen challenging, they fought back. With three races remaining, the Championship contenders had six wins apiece – Alonso had the upper hand but Raikkonen was not finished yet.

Even when Alonso was crowned the Driver’s Champion, the Constructor’s World Championship was still up for the taking, and every minute is captured here in this official review which features previously unseen footage, race highlights and qualifying laps from a multitude of fantastic camera angles.

Fans get the chance to go behind the scenes of one of the most glamorous sports in the world with special features and exclusive on-board footage as ‘Fantastic Fernando’ marks the beginning of a new era of Formula 1 motor racing. Includes a special ride on-board with Raikkonen during a qualifying lap of the inaugural Formula 1 Turkish Grand Prix.

F1 2005: Fantastic Fernando is available now, priced at £19.99 on DVD, £14.99 on VHS,
