F1 film features Brad Pitt as a Formula One racer

Yes, Pitt and Idris spent four months learning to drive real Formula 1 cars. “If you see Brad's face, then it's him driving, and often at speeds up to around 180 mph,” says Kosinski.

No, “F1 The Movie” is not based on a true story. However, Bruckheimer and Kosinski enlisted seven-time Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton as a producer and adviser to make the film as authentic as possible.

As the end credits begin to roll up the side of the screen, Sonny is shown racing the sand dunes in Baha in a dune buggy. The footage features up-close shots of Pitt, who does all of his own driving in F1: The Movie. Accompanying the footage is Ed Sheeran's new song, Drive.
