Two photographers, two representatives of the indisputable photograph motorcycle, impeccable intermediaries between competition and the public, Soldano and Lazzari, capture images where the human relationship is the real star, combining the excitement of the sport already with a human component in some so lets play a more vivid image itself, even those who are not rampant fans.
Both with their work led to a new type of communication, more immediate and in which the pilot becomes "argument" of the photo.
