F1: The Movie (English) is scheduled to be released on 27 June, 2025. F1: THE MOVIE is a story about the bond between two drivers. Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt) was an expert F1 racer. He had to quit the championship in 1993 after suffering a major accident on the racing… track in Spain. After recovering, Sonny couldn’t stay away from races and kept participating in various championships. In the present day, Sonny has just helped a team win during a 24-hour race at Daytona. He’s about to apply for a Baja car racing tournament when he’s approached by Ruben Cervantes (Javier Bardem), owner of the APXGP team and also a former F1 driver. Ruben’s team is not performing well and he risks losing it if it doesn’t perform. Hence, Ruben asks Javier to be the second driver during the upcoming racing season for APXGP. Sonny agrees and he reaches London to join the team. They don’t give him a warm welcome, especially the lead rookie driver Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), who has reservations about the fact that Sonny played an F1 race ages ago. Sonny’s cocky attitude also puts off others like technical director Kate (Kerry Condon), team principal Kaspar Smolinski (Kim Bodnia), race engineer Nickleby (Will Merrick), Dodge Dowda (Abdul Salis) etc. During the press tour, Sonny is asked uncomfortable questions about his past, that is, his accident, losing most of his wealth to gambling, divorces etc. and this further makes him an unpleasant addition. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
