A movie about motor racing without any motor racing

I liked this movie. I really did. The cinematography was excellent so the whole movie was just beautiful to look at. It was well written and well acted all around. So, I have no complaints there at all.

But, here's the thing. This movie was about Tazio Nuvolari, the racing driver. So why then was there absolutely no attempt to show any actual racing apart from old footage of the real Nuvolari in races in the 30s, 40s and 50s? I compare this to other recent movies like "Rush" (excellent) and "Ford vs Ferrari" (really and truly excellent) which were just full of scenes involving actual racing.

Is it really too much to ask for some presentation of motor racing in a film about a famous motor car racer? In that regard, this movie failed miserably but, it was enjoyable nonetheless.

7/10 from me.
