‘THE DOCTOR'' WINS AGAIN
28 December 2005 - Duke Marketing Ltd

MotoGP 2005 Official Review available now on DVD and VHS

The Official Review of the 2005 season, made under
licence from Dorna Sports and released by powersport
specialists Duke, brings to life all the drama and
incredible skill that has come to be expected from
the premier bikesport championship in the world.

With 11 race wins, 5 of them consecutive and a MotoGP
first, Rossi claimed his fifth world title at the Malaysian
GP with 4 races left. He becomes not only a champion
but also a record breaker - equalling Mike Hailwood’s
record of 76 GP wins - firmly establishing his position in
bikesport history as a modern day legend.

2005 was a season of firsts - with new GPs in the USA, China and Turkey as well as a maiden GP win for Marco Melandri, who finished second overall in an impressive rise through the rankings from his 2004 final standing of tenth place. But this year also signalled important goodbyes - to Neil Hodgson who moves to the AMA Superbikes Championship and team Aprilia, who withdrew from MotoGP competition indefinitely.

Alongside changes in line-up, new rules added to the excitement of this year’s championship. Fuel tank capacity was reduced from 24 to 22 litres, and a new weather rule insisted that riders were not to stop in the rain unless white flagged - all of which pushed riders abilities even further resulting in 17 action-packed, highly entertaining rounds, all captured by trackside and on-bike cameras.

This programme, with renowned Eurosport commentators, Toby Moody and Julian Ryder, features over three hours of heart stopping action as the racers battle against each other and push their machines to breaking point to win the ultimate prize.

DVD Special features include: ‘Former World Champions’, ‘Tyres’, ‘Shanghai Circuit’, ‘Laguna Seca Circuit’, ‘Istanbul Park Circuit’, and ‘Riders Relax.’

MotoGP Review 2005 is available now, priced at £19.99 on DVD, £16.99 on VHS, available from leading video outlets or direct from Duke Video: Tel 01624 640000, fax 01624 640001 or email mail@dukevideo.com. Visit www.dukevideo.com online.
