Be careful, this will not be a separate session devoted to filming, but along with the rest of the actual F1 grid. Yes, the actor will be among the likes of Max Verstappen, Sergio Perez and Fernando Alonso, just to name a few.

The aforementioned media also mention that the production will have its own F1 team before the end of the season. Thus, it will become the eleventh organization in the highest category. It is planned that the shooting, led by Brad Pitt, will take place throughout the next Grand Prix.

Also, of course, the fact that there are official drivers on the grid with Brad Pitt will be of interest to a lot more people than Exclusive to Apple TV+.

However, if we analyze it from the side of motorsport, then in the near future we will have to solve several issues. How will filming affect the competition? Will teams and riders have to adapt to make their contribution? Introducing Brad Pitt as a driver – with the right partner, of course – and additional equipment, and engaging them in a schedule thought out to the smallest detail, should not be something easy.

At the moment, yes, the manufacturing and Apple have not made a decision on this issue. Like those who run F1. What is clear is that in order to further increase the popularity of their event, they are ready to accept any offer. Perhaps even without first listening to the opinion of the teams.

The above shows that they want to absorb as much as possible the whole reality surrounding the competition. The British are accompanied in the same position by Jerry Bruckheimer (‌World War Z) and Chad Oman (Pirates of the Caribbean). For his part, Joseph Kosinski (Top Shooter: Maverick) will be the director.
