F1 World Nominates Favorite Racing Movies as Lewis Hamilton Kicks Off $140 Million Hollywood Passion Project

Lewis Hamilton has achieved many feats in his career. Winning multiple championships, breaking records, and raising awareness on some of the most pressing issues in society. And now he has set his sight on winning the hearts of Hollywood; by being a movie producer. It has been recently announced that Lewis Hamilton will be co-producing a movie by Apple TV based on Formula 1.

The details of the film are very thin but it will involve the likes of Brad Pitt as the main character. This is not the first time Lewis Hamilton has been involved with the film industry. He also starred in the movie Cars made by Disney-Pixar. While the part was small, it was significant enough.  

But the question begs to be asked, what is the best F1 movie ever? As posted by WTF1, Twitter users pitched in their thoughts on what they thought is the best F1 movie that they have seen.  

While the obvious answer seemed “Rush”, many disagreed and said that “Grand Prix” was better. Many argued that the latter had better cinematography than any other F1 movie that Hollywood has ever produced. 

However, one user pointed out, “Wow omitting Iron Man 2 and it’s contribution to movies set at the Monaco GP”.

Lewis Hamilton wary of W13 porpoising in Baku

Formula 1 will be racing in the streets of Baku once again. With warm weather predicted for the race, can Lewis Hamilton turn his luck around in this round? Mercedes have been generally struggling with slow speed corners as was evident by their performance in Monaco last time around.

“I’m praying the car doesn’t feel like it does here,” said Hamilton, ahead to the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Monaco. “This was the worst in this car so far because of the potholes. I’m looking forward to it going away – just my teeth, my jaw moving all the time.”

“I’m done shaking. I don’t know if it’s the porpoising. I hope it’s not what we had in the last race, so I want it to not be a problem. But if there are potholes, then in the corners we can have them.”
