There's nothing really new here, a pretty safe sports biopic like you're used to seeing, but this one still manages to milk the formulaic into something at times engaging, even while it's familiar. If nothing else, at least it's pretty damn good-looking and the racing scenes are shot and edited in a pretty high-octane way. Apart from that, it's cozily predictable (compulsory oft-repeated family melodrama and all), whether you know the history or not, but mercifully not in an enraging way like most movies of this type. A passable companion piece to Ron Howard's 'Rush'. I give it 5.5/10.
