He starts winning the races and gains some fame due to his background. He begins a relationship with social worker Erika who he knows from the past.
The lead needs more emotions to be compelling. He's too controlled. His history with Erika needs to be laid out fully from the beginning. It's hard to engage with this guy who is so unengaging. The action could be shot with more thrills. I didn't realize that this is a true story and I don't know if it matters. It could have helped if the movie digs into the lead Johann more.
