In the scorched badlands of the American Southwest, an ex-race car driver with a dark past is forced into a deadly desert race by a criminal syndicate. With a bounty on his head and his estranged daughter held hostage, he must outrun assassins, rival racers, and his own guilt to deliver a mysterious package to a powerful cartel. The film opens mid-action, as Jack “Inferno” Blake is chased across the desert by a group of armed bikers. Jack, once a celebrated Formula One champion, turned his back on racing after a fatal crash killed his best friend. Now living in self-imposed exile, Jack is drawn back into a world of adrenaline and danger when his estranged teenage daughter, Hannah, is kidnapped by a ruthless crime lord, Rhea Santoro.
