WOW - how have they done this....???? None of the bikes are blurred despite them moving and there doesn't seem to be any over lap in the image. Very impressive.

I would guess either two cameras back to back with fish eye lenses fired at the same time - there's software available to stich those together to give a 'hemisphere' view, or alternatively several cameras with wide angle lenses, arranged in a tight circle, and also set to fire at the same time.

Given that you can pan upwards to a vertical I suspect the two fisheye approach.
