The 2004 Formula One season was one for the history books, and this annual Season Review DVD preserves it all for glorious posterity. Not only did Michael Schumacher score his record-setting seventh World Driver's Championship (13 wins in 18 races), but he and Ferrari teammate Rubens Barichello scored 1st- and 2nd-podium finishes throughout the season, taking the Scuderia to the Constructor's Championship by an untouchable margin. Barichello had a stellar and emotionally moving season that also saw the addition of two glorious new circuits (China, Bahrain); the "walrus tusk" nose on the new BMW Williams racer (eventually abandoned mid-season); the amazing Monaco race, where Jarno Trulli won and Schumacher spectacularly failed to finish due to an avoidable tunnel mishap; Ralf Schumacher's near-tragic shunt at Indianapolis (and his late-season recovery); Kimi Raikkonen's mounting frustrations in the unreliable Mercedes McLaren (and partial late-season comeback); the rise of Jenson Button and Takuma Sato as future F1 superstars; and rule-changes in engine use and qualifying that revamped the grid with equal parts controversy and approval. Even with Schumi's dominance, it was a fantastic season by any standard, setting the stage for tumultuous personnel changes in 2005.
The 2004 Review is better and longer (3 hours 14 minutes) than 2003's DVD, with such welcome additions as cockpit radio samples, improved camera angles, and throttle/brake indicators. It's still expensive, however, and although the race-by-race coverage is fantastic, one wishes for more interviews, expert commentary, and behind-the-scenes news. This is a no-nonsense summary, so you don't get as much background as you do on ITV or Speed Channel coverage, and some amusing details--like the missing diamond from Jaguar's "Ocean's Twelve" car--are conspicuously absent. Still, there's no better DVD available for F1 fans, and that makes the 2004 Review an absolute must-have for your motorsports video library. --Jeff Shannon

The video compression is nearly exceptional considering the length of the film on only one disc.
The sound is just as it should be: loud! The cars launching from the start line and the pits is terrific as the engine strains against the rev limiter. The deafening sound on the pit straights is accurately reproduced as well.
Also, Formula One reaches a sort of "peak" for this era during 2004. The engine development pushes ever higher, with the 3.0 liter V-10s delivering over 950 bhp at over 18,500 rpm, and installed in a 1300 pound car that includes the driver. Bridgestone and Michelin are all about making the absolute fastest, stickiest tire possible. In fact, most standing lap records are held by the Formula One Ferrari of '04.
This would be a great disc to introduce to a new fan as it is sure to impress. It is a great year in which the engineers really trounce the rule-makers and produce a devastatingly fast and dangerous car.
WhitestarDVD, producer of this disc, was dropped after 2005. They did a great job on this review and it is a shame they were dropped.
