Connecting with thoughts - My thoughts and Me

Dreams shattered Promises broken Desire unfulfilled Homes taken away Havoc wreaked  Peace ripped off Belief destroyed Trust questioned Souls depressed Faith lost Existence doubted Lives torn apart Living disrupted The travails of an aftermath Far far exceed Of what precedes it

For and against Two warring sides Two different perspectives Two sides of an argument Both right in their might For a cause which they fight However, fail to see the light The other may hold For the reason Being blinded  By the beliefs (in which they walk) Ignorant of the fact There are always three sides One for, the other against And one that connects them both The truth

Something's changed.... It's unlike before... There used to be... This was... Those days... Things were different then... That's how it has always been... Not quite the way we used to do....

The movie tracks the evolution of their rivalry from Formula Three Circuit to Formula One Championship of 1976 where it reached its peak with both drivers willing to  push themselves to the breaking point of physical and psychological endurance and risk everything to become the world champion in a sport with no margin for error: if you make a mistake, you die.  The story also highlights their distinctly different personal styles and lives, on and off the track of both.
