the visit of Brad Pitt to the Austin paddock during the first day of the United States Grand Prix has not gone unnoticed and it has not been festive either, but purely professional. The bosses of the teams and the president of F1, Stefano Domenicallihave met this Friday with the Californian actor and the producer Jerry Bruckheimer to know the details of the film that both are preparing about the queen category of motorsports.

The project will be led by Joseph Kosinski, the director of Tron and the recent success Top Gun: Maverick, while the producer will be Bruckheimerwhich in its extensive history has hits such as Top Gun, NASCAR Days of Thunder and the Pirates of the Caribbean saga. The script will be carried out by Ehren Kruger and will revolve around a veteran pilot who serves as a mentor to a promising youngster. Lewis Hamilton is linked to the production of the project.

Kosinki stressed that filming the actual cars in action will be a key part of the production and Formula 1 is expected to offer full cooperation, including permission to film at the grands prix. “The idea is to capture that world in the most authentic way possible, to record real cars in real races, and to give the public a sense of what those single-seaters are. There are only 20 Formula 1 drivers in the world, it has to be one. of the most exclusive clubs that exist”.
