Just to clarify something:  You don't get to go 'free'  if you bought a ticket last year and were treated to that disaster they called a race.....  What they was offer ticket holders a buy one get one free deal.

Wag

  What other race? You mean that 6-car Formula One Grand Prix at Indy?
  Yeah, I'm sure the Grand Prix in the movie was more exciting. At least
  everyone who went to the real Indy race last year gets to go for free
  this year.

Are you serious? What a crock of sh!t!

I am - it is a crock of shit.  F1 & Michelin will never get another dime from me.

Is that a 2 DVD price? Autosport.com said:

It has been 40 years since the legendary film maker John Frankenheimer made
"Grand Prix", and the movie remains to this day the most important (if not
only) cinematic rendition of Formula One. Finally, Warner Home Video are
preparing to release the movie on a special two-disc DVD edition later this
year
