Brad Pitt‘s F1 has been a generally well-received movie for fans new to the sport. The post-pandemic Formula One craze, propelled by Drive to Survive, contributed greatly to the monumental reception of the film. However, considering how much Apple’s biggest hit owes its success to Netflix, it is surprising to find one important factor from the series missing in the film.
For Netflix, the series took off entirely on the back of one man: Daniel Ricciardo. The Aussie driver who graced the screen, big smile and all heart, from Seasons 1 to 7, quickly gained the attention and favor of the world with his charm and wit. And as such, his absence was instantly noticed throughout the film’s storyline.

Brad Pitt's "F1" has gotten strong reviews and opened to an impressive start at the box office, but naturally, that success doesn't mean that the film is entirely accurate to real Formula 1 racing. Sure, director Joseph Kosinski has pulled off some of the most technically impressive and aesthetically on-point racing scenes ever filmed in the genre, and those set pieces are the absolute highlights of the movie. But the actual racing within those sequences, as well as the larger story, don't always make a ton of sense.
It's all in good fun, of course, and when was the last time a fictional sports movie actually 100% lined up with the sport in question? There is no qualifying in "F1." There are moves that make no sense in "F1." But don't just take my word for it -- take it from the actual drivers who do the job.

F1 The Movie: Brad Pitt’s Mysterious Playing Card Habit Has A Deeper Backstory—Director Explains Why
Brad Pitt’s Mysterious F1 Ritual Explained (Photo Credit – Instagram)
Brad Pitt steps into the racing world as Sonny Hayes in F1: The Movie, a former Formula One driver dragged back onto the track after a three-decade break. In the film, Pitt’s character is older, worn by the road, and not just mentoring a young talent on the fictional Apxgp team. He is also carrying a little piece of his past in the shape of a playing card tucked into his pocket.

When Apple and Formula One teamed for its pricey tentpole F1: The Movie, they hoped for a mutually beneficial relationship. The Brad Pitt film from Top Gun: Maverick filmmaker Joseph Kosinski would attract new fans to the sport, while F1 fanatics would flock to theaters and boost the box office. It seems like a good bet; F1 has grown in popularity in recent years, particularly making strides with women, thanks to the Netflix docuseries Drive to Survive, which has chronicled the drama on and off the track since 2019.
Now, just a day away from its June 27 release, a key question is about to be answered: will F1 fans accept the film, or will it be seen as too “Hollywood” — a not quite authentic version of a racing sport that already delivers plenty of drama in real life? (Max Verstappen and George Russell continued beef? Red Bull playing driver musical chairs for its second seat?...

Sports are at their dramatic best when the improbable occurs. So are the movies that portray those implausible stories. From Rudy to Rookie of the Year, America loves a narrative that tracks the rise of the five-foot-nothings and, well, the Chicago Cubs, baseball’s near-eternal underdogs. Joseph Kosinski applies that tried-and-true blueprint to F1, his follow-up to the theatrical treasury known as Top Gun: Maverick. But the checkered flag for this big-budget, star-driven, premium-format film lies beyond the box office.
Kosinski delivers a solid entry for 2025’s summer session: a slick, glossy blockbuster that’s a feast for the senses and easy on the brain. The inherently visual (and most-engrossing) aspects of Formula 1’s spectacle of speed are thrillingly translated to the big screen with bone-rattling sound design and the director’s now-signature use of cockpit cameras. Like Maverick before it, an important selling point is “yes, that’s really the movie star doing that.

Apple TV+ is no stranger to making headlines, but when it sneakily teased F1 movie during Wwdc 2025, fans knew the hype was about to go full throttle. The film—starring Brad Pitt as a fictional veteran driver—has been buzzing in the paddock for months, and now it’s finally shifted gears into premiere mode.
The world premiere lit up New York’s Times Square, with the F1 grid and team principals finally switching their fireproof suits for red-carpet glam. But it wasn’t just about the flash—Carlos Sainz Jr. came ready to speak his mind. Amid the designer tuxedos and champagne smiles, the Ferrari star gave some surprisingly candid thoughts about the movie: no sugarcoating, no PR polish—just pure, unfiltered Sainz.

Brad Pitt's new sports drama, F1, is not the first film to try to bring the adrenaline-pumping environment of racing to the big screen. However, it looks like it's the first one to get it right.
The new sports drama has Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski at the helm, with a script by Ehren Kruger. Kosinski has previously proven his skills with the billion-dollar Top Gun sequel and other exciting action films, and he delivers again with the racing drama, which was filmed and produced with the involvement of Fia, the Formula 1 governing body, as well as several racing drivers like seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton. Ahead of its worldwide release on June 27, F1 debuted with a thrilling 81% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Few movies in 2025 have generated as much buzz as the Apple TV+ movie F1. This high-octane racing movie is directed by Joseph Kosinski, the mastermind behind Top Gun: Maverick. The movie combines Hollywood star power with authentic Formula One action, featuring Brad Pitt in the lead as veteran driver Sonny Hayes, alongside Damson Idris as a rising rookie.
What sets F1 apart isn’t just its IMAX-ready visuals or real-life racetrack footage; it’s the involvement of seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, who serves as a producer and helped shape the movie’s authenticity. With its theatrical release set for June 25 internationally and June 27 in the U.S. and Canada, anticipation is through the roof. And now, with early screenings shown to the film press, the first wave of reactions is here—and it’s looking like F1 could be a critical winner.

After the tremendous success of Top Gun: Maverick in 2022, director Joseph Kosinski is moving from fast planes to fast cars with his new movie, F1. The film stars Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, an aging racing driver who is given a shot in the Mercedes Formula 1 team, and has to work with his younger rival, Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris). The movie is a massive gamble for Apple, as the studio has spent over $200 million on the project's production. F1 is set to release in theaters on June 25. Ahead of its theatrical release, members of the press were treated to an advanced screening of the film, and the first reactions have just been released online. Has Kosinski achieved similar success to Top Gun: Maverick, or has F1 stalled out before it's even started?
The first reactions to Joseph Kosinski's F1 movie tease a second consecutive hit for the Top Gun: Maverick director.

F1 has been one of the longest-running and prestigious motorsport championships. In 2025, it marks its 75-year anniversary, beginning as basic open-wheel racing, which has evolved into one of the world’s largest and most prominent sporting events over the years. The cars have improved, drivers have continued to evolve, and the fan base has grown. From high-speed duels on legendary tracks to the intense strategy battles from the pit wall, F1 today is not just about driving skills; it’s a mix of technology and athleticism.
With its rise in popularity, it was natural for fans to want more than just watching races—they wanted to experience it and feel the same thrill the racers go through. While most of us are not capable of driving an F1 car, game developers have made it possible for fans to experience the thrill of driving one. While several developers dabbled in the genre,...

When it comes to stunts and action, it is a fact proven time and again that nobody can do it like Tom Cruise. So while Brad Pitt is helming the upcoming sports drama film, F1, one might wonder what if Cruise was the lead instead of Pitt.
Well, the crew and director of F1 have the answer to this interesting question. Joseph Kosinski, who worked with Cruise in the blockbuster, Top Gun: Maverick, recently talked about it in the latest cover story by GQ about the making of the upcoming film, and his answer isn’t shocking in the least.

The highly anticipated new F1 movie will soon hit the theaters. The movie, even before release, turned heads with the level of authenticity and never-before-seen camera angles on F1 cars that capture the speed and intensity of F1 cars so amazingly. To add to the realism, Lewis Hamilton served as an executive producer, bringing his firsthand experience and passion for the sport to the project.
He was involved in the production process, not just as a producer but through his own production company, Dawn Apollo. The new Brad Pitt-starring movie, being the production company’s first project itself is a huge achievement, and hopefully, it only goes up from there.

From her Disney days as Evie in Descendants to pulling at our heartstrings in Purple Hearts, she’s proven she’s not just a pretty face. Sofia’s got serious range, a killer voice, and a natural ability to make everything she touches feel effortlessly stylish. Oh, and did we mention she’s a Unicef ambassador and has a degree from UCLA? Total powerhouse.
She’s also one of those celebrities who always seems so put together. You’ll see her at award shows in stunning gowns, giving interviews with grace, and speaking up for causes she believes in. But even though she is always in the public eye, there’s one part of her life that remains super low-key, her love life.

I’ve got to say, Brad Pitt calling his $400 million movie career an “annoyance” really caught me off guard. I mean, most people would kill for that kind of success now, won’t they? Sure, fame isn’t all sunshine and roses. We understand the constant scrutiny.
But hearing him talk openly about the struggles behind the glitz made me think twice. It also goes to show that even the biggest stars face challenges that we often don’t see.

The movie is set to release on June 25, and before the release, Lewis Hamilton gathered all the racers from the grid and team principals for an early premiere. The movie received high praise from his fellow racers, but it was not free from light criticism. The word “Hollywood” was the most frequently used in the movie review.

However, while he was busy streaming, many of his contemporaries did sit down to watch F1: The Movie, and their responses...well, they may be telling.

One of the most recent movies creating a buzz around the motorsport community is the F1 movie. Directed by Joseph Kosinski, it aims to create the most immersive and realistic racing movie ever made. At a special screening during the Monaco Grand Prix, Hamilton, also an executive producer, gathered the grid to watch the upcoming movie.
While most of the grid was present, Max Verstappen and Lance Stroll couldn’t attend the premiere. Apart from the F1 aspect, most racers in the movie are actual Formula 1 drivers, making it one of the most authentic movies of this era. That said, many felt it was a classic Hollywood movie, with extra drama and flair. So, what exactly did these drivers have to say about the movie?

Joseph Kosinski's F1 movie is quickly shaping up to be one of 2025's most anticipated releases. The film stars Brad Pitt as an aging driver who is brought in as part of Mercedes' team for the new Formula 1 season. The trailers have highlighted the high-octane racing scenes, most of which were shot in-camera. The latest promo also embraces the petrol-headed nature of the movie by referencing a classic anime film with one of the most iconic racing scenes in cinema.
The newest poster for F1 was shared by Dolby Cinema's official X (formerly Twitter) account, and anime fans were pleasantly surprised with the new promo. The minimally designed poster features Brad Pitt walking away from his Formula 1 car, which is half cut off at the top of the poster, along with the movie's logo in bold at the bottom. At first glance, it's a minimalistic poster like many others.

F1 The Movie, starring Brad Pitt, has a new trailer!
Joseph Kosinski directed the film, which also features Javier Bardem, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Kim Bodnia, Shea Wigham, Joseph Balderrama, Sarah Niles, Samson Kayo, Callie Cooke and Layne Harper.
Dubbed “the greatest that never was,” Sonny Hayes (Pitt) was Formula 1’s most promising phenom of the 1990s until an accident on the track nearly ended his career. Thirty years later, he’s a nomadic racer-for-hire when he’s approached by his former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Bardem), owner of a struggling Formula 1 team that is on the verge of collapse. Ruben convinces Sonny to come back to Formula 1 for one last shot at saving the team and being the best in the world. He’ll drive alongside Joshua Pearce (Idris), the team’s hotshot rookie intent on setting his own pace. But as the engines roar, Sonny’s past...

Brad Pitt’s Apple film F1 has a finish line in sight as well as other important details about the making of the movie that will interest viewers.
The film, made in partnership with Formula 1 and its 10 teams, will arrive in 2025 with real racing world experts behind the product as well as big-name movie makers.
Read on for everything we know about Apple’s Brad Pitt F1 movie:
When does Apple’s Brad Pitt F1 movie come out?
The film, officially titled F1 as of July 5, will roll into theaters on June 27, 2025.
What is Brad Pitt’s F1 Apple film about?
Pitt plays a former driver who returns to Formula 1 racing alongside his teammate (Damson Idris) at the fictional team Apxgp on the grid.
Who is in Brad Pitt’s Apple F1 film?
Aside from Pitt and Idris, the film also stars Kerry Condon, Javier Bardem, Tobias Menzies, Sarah Niles, Kim Bodnia and Samson Kayo.

Professional drivers who will also star include Esteban Ocon, Carlos Sainz and others who play themselves as a result of the embedded filming at real-life racetracks while competitions take place.
How realistic is Apple’s Brad Pitt F1 film?
Pitt and Idris will actually drive the cars, according to director Joseph Kosinski. He and producer Jerry Bruckheimer sat down with Deadline for an exclusive Q+A ahead of the British Grand Prix. They filmed at the iconic Silverstone racetrack in the actual British Grand Prix. Other tracks featured will include Daytona, Hungary, Spa (Belgium), Monza (Italy), Zandvoort (Netherlands), Japan, Las Vegas, Abu Dhabi and Mexico City.
Seven-time F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton is also producing the film through his Apollo Dawn Films banner while he still races professionally.
“He’s the first person I contacted three years ago. I knew for us to make it as authentic as possible, someone on the team who lives it day-in and day-out would be invaluable,” Kosinski told Deadline. “Lewis has been an incredible partner; he jumps on Zooms with me between races to go through the script, line by line, turn by turn, you know, tire compound by tire compound, to make sure that we are getting all the details right. Beyond that, on a creative and story level, he also has input.”

Kosinski also shared that embedding into the racetracks to capture specific scenes while races are happening adds intensity to creating and completing the scenes. One scene at Silverstone had a 9-minute window to nail.
Brad Pitt. What kind of cars and cameras are used in Brad Pitt’s Apple F1 film?
Pitt and Damson were trained for almost three months before getting in the movie-making vehicles. They started in Formula 3 cars before moving up to Formula 2 cars.
Working with Mercedes and Toto Wolff, team CEO, Co-Owner and Team Principal, the film’s team constructed modified Formula 2 cars with 15 camera mounts built into them to shoot films.
“They all complain that racing movies aren’t fast enough because usually when they build these cars, they’re movie cars. You know, they look right, but they aren’t real race cars,” Kosinski said. “At one of our first meetings, Toto said: ‘You should build this off a Formula 2 car, but make it look like a Formula 1 car,’ so it’s a Formula 2 chassis and engine. We worked closely with Mercedes and their design team and aerodynamicists to develop a custom body that resembles the latest generation Formula 1 car. They’re built specifically for this movie.

Kosinski also described the technology and equipment used to capture footage as “the next generation from what we did on Top Gun.”
“We have bespoke cameras for this that are very small and light so that they don’t impede the performance of the car too much and that’s key because you don’t want to have a race car and then put 200 pounds of gear on it. Our camera mounts were designed with Mercedes as well. The cameras are specially designed by Sony,” he said. “The big innovation is that we’re now able to control the movement of the cameras on the cars. We’re not locked into these kinds of fixed positions we had on Top Gun. Now we have real-time control of panning and focusing them while shooting through a very extensive Rf network that we’ve built around the tracks.”
How did the Brad Pitt F1 film come together? Who is making the Apple film?
Kosinski directs from Ehren Kruger’s script and produces alongside Bruckheimer. Bruckheimer said that Hamilton galvanized the film’s development.
“From Lewis, we got to Mercedes, from Mercedes, we got the car; if you approach it the right way it’s not as difficult as you think,” Bruckheimer told Deadline. “Then we went to Stefano [Domenicali, Formula One Group CEO], we went to [Fia President Mohammed Ben Sulayem], we went to the Principals of every team. We’ve met with all the drivers to tell them what we were doing. We met with just about everybody in Formula 1.”

The spectacle of Formula 1 does not exist without the noise: the sound of rubber zipping over the track at 200 mph, the clatter of gravel as a car skids over a corner, the collective gasp of a crowd as a chassis crumples into a barrier — or another car — at unfathomable speed, and the pop of a champagne cork over a trophy.

The members of the 2025 Formula 1 team are cooking up a storm of scandal and drama left and right without Drive to Survive having to go looking for it. Ranging from drivers to veteran team principals, F1 is currently serving as a minefield of controversies that are set to become fodder for the Netflix series’s Season 8 arc.

In the high-octane world of Formula 1, life imitates art in a classic Drive to Survive fashion. While drivers, engineers, and team principals sweat through a race nearly every other weekend across the globe, words and blows are exchanged and memories are made for all the fans to see, relive, and enjoy.

However, the all-seeing, all-hearing eyes and ears of Netflix’s documentary crew make sure that the narrative never reaches the audience in its purest, most uncorrupted form. Drive to Survive is infamous for its selective editing, distortion of real events to suit a clickbait angle, and dialing up the drama on an otherwise relatively mundane conversation by faking the audio-video clips.
Now, it seems as though some of DTS‘s bad traits have rubbed off on Formula One Management as well after the recent Lewis Hamilton debacle at the 2025 Chinese Grand Prix.

F1 director Joseph Kosinski explained why racing champion Lewis Hamilton was one of the key figures during the production of Apple Studios’ upcoming sports drama. Besides making an appearance in the Brad Pitt-led movie, Hamilton also serves as an executive producer.
Speaking with Screen Rant, Kosinski shared how much Hamilton helped them during the cast’s training and filming. He also revealed that the award-winning athlete was also very “instrumental” in the story’s formulation since he was able to offer his insights regarding the two main characters' storylines. "Lewis was instrumental in not only the technical aspects obviously, but in the real kind of formulative stage of the movie, formulating this narrative," he said. "We tell the story of Sonny Hayes, who's kind of veteran racer, and then Joshua Pierce, who's a rookie. Lewis has been both. He's been the rookie almost winning his first season in Formula...

Apple Original Films and Warner Bros. Pictures have finally launched the full-length official trailer for Joseph Kosinski's F1, the upcoming summer action blockbuster starring 2x Academy Award-winner Brad Pitt (Fight Club; Bullet Train; Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood) as Sonny Hayes, "the greatest that never was."
Speaking with reporters at the trailer launch, the Top Gun: Maverick director teased what we can expect from his next high octane thriller, "Watching Brad drive around at speeds over 180 miles an hour was really impressive to see because it's not something you can just learn overnight. The dedication and the focus that Brad put into this process has been amazing to witness. This film has got it all: Brad Pitt, speed, thrills, an epic underdog story, drama, humor, and a little bit of romance."

Brad Pitt will pull out all the stops in the upcoming Apple Original Film F1. The project will star the actor as a retired Formula One racer.
Warner Bros. and Apple TV joined forces to release the official trailer for the upcoming sports drama in a livestreaming session on YouTube. The official trailer, which clocks in at 2:30 minutes, follows Pitt's Sonny Hayes as he attempts to return to the intense and competitive world of Formula 1. Not as a driver, but as a mentor and consultant to a struggling Formula 1 team.
The release of the trailer on Mar. 13 is not coincidental, considering that the real Formula 1 is set to kick off the new season on Sunday, Mar. 16, with the Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne, Australia.

The 2025 Formula 1 racing season, the world-famous series’ 75th anniversary, gets underway late night Saturday, March 7, as teams compete in the Louis Vuitton Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne. It’s the first time since 2019 that the Australian Gp kicks off the F1 season. Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, Carlos Sainz, George Russell and Charles Leclerc look to upend Max Verstappen‘s quest for a fifth straight drivers’ championship.

As the 2025 Formula 1 season approaches at a hurtling pace, Drive to Survive Season 7 already accomplishes its objective by setting the ground for this year’s Grand Prix with its usual dramatic recap of the events of the past year. Among the many scandalous revelations is Lewis Hamilton’s move to Ferrari, which leaves his seat at Mercedes up for grabs.

While Drive to Survive Season 7 delivers the major news flashes from 2024, it also covers the internal power struggle at Mercedes and its arc of succession. Hamilton being F1 royalty, it is an understandable turning point in the sport’s long history and an equally difficult search for his successor at the Silver Arrows team.

Drive to Survive has always been about storytelling in its rawest and most undiluted form. As tires grit and melt against the friction of the tracks, 20 drivers move in tandem despite the sweltering heat of their car’s engines while trying to strategize and get an edge over one another – all while blazing down the racetracks at 200 miles an hour toward the finish line.

These 20 drivers, along with their team principals, race engineers, and mechanics, live and breathe competition for 9 months out of 12 every year. Winning is the only thing that matters, and if not, getting an edge over your rival is acceptable, too.
Witnessing all of the action up close, the drama behind the scenes, and the on and off-track rivalry has now become Netflix’s modus operandi. However, all of it was only made possible when one of the go-to villains of Drive to...

Netflix comes up with a new trick every time its position at the top is threatened by factors beyond its control – like F1 dropping Daniel Ricciardo in the middle of the 2024 Grand Prix season. Considering how the Aussie has been the fan-favorite in Drive to Survive and the show’s de facto protagonist, it was understandable for Netflix to begin scouring the field for its next star.

Multiple new drivers and team principals have entered the grid, making Drive to Survive‘s latest season seem like a badly recast show with new faces filling in for the old favorites.

Formula One has been an incredible journey for Lewis Hamilton. Being the first (and only) Black driver in F1 history, Hamilton set a blazing inspiration for those who dream of following in his footsteps. The 7-time world champion has little to complain of after his brilliant career and legacy in the sport, but when it comes to one rival, Hamilton is not as level-headed as he likes to be.

In 2021, after one of the most controversial races in Formula’s history, Lewis Hamilton found his 8th championship title slip through his fingers as Red Bull driver Max Verstappen raced to the finish line. The Dutchman has since then won three other consecutive drivers’ championship titles, making him only the second driver in F1 history to ever win their first four championships in a row.
