Hopkins still rides for Suzuki.
McCoy did some testing for Ilmor in the last few races of the season, then got dumped...

Politics... the powers that be allgedly provided Ilmor with an incentive to have a British rider in their team.
McCoy got dumped in favour of McWilliams (who should have retired well before now).
You probably can't hire the DVD's/video's, but i'm sure if you do a search, you'll be able to find a heap that you can hire.
Made by the same producer/director as Faster, you can also get:
Faster and Faster
The Doctor, the Tornado and the Kentucky Kid
