Brad Pitt, the Hollywood legend, is going to create history at this year’s British Grand Prix. He would be seen on the track at the event alongside Lewis Hamilton and the other 19 F1 drivers. Pitt has got special permission to do it as it is a part of the shooting of his upcoming new movie based around the pinnacle of motor racing.

Brad Pitt would take part in the first parade lap at Silverstone and would even be seen leading all the other 20 F1 cars. The move is a risky one taking into account the strict protocols of F1, but the move was pushed by several bosses in order to keep the feel of the untitled F1 movie as real as possible.

Lewis Hamilton is the executive producer of the movie and an insider. While talking about the movie recently said, “Watching Brad Pitt leading the field in the British Grand Prix will be an incredible and surreal moment for TV viewers and fans at Silverstone this July.” The source is quite right in his assessment, as seeing Brad Pitt leading the rest of the F1 drivers would be a sight to behold for the fans of the sport all over the globe.

Moreover, the film is made by Dawn Apollo Films, which happens to be Lewis Hamilton’s new production company. The Brit will be helping with the casting, and while talking about the project, he previously said, “It’s a cool project . . . [and] spending good time with Brad is pretty epic.” Hamilton is quite excited about the project, and his excitement levels have gone up a notch because of the involvement of the Hollywood legend, Brad Pitt.

Lewis Hamilton is hands down the ultimate GOAT of the sport, with 7 World Championships to his name. However, despite this, his 2022 campaign did not pan out per his lofty F1 standards. It was because of a plethora of reasons, but what pained him the most about last year was getting beaten by his new teammate, George Russell.

Hamilton was not able to match George Russell’s pace last year and was comfortably beaten. But as things stand in the ongoing campaign, the 38-year-old is 20 points ahead of his teammate. With the Azerbaijan Grand Prix approaching pretty fast, his sole intention is going to be to finish as high as possible and make sure he is ahead of Russell.

When the British Grand Prix comes up on the F1 horizon, he would ideally want to stay ahead of his teammate and be in a joyous mood for the event. Brad Pitt would be there as well, and it would be fascinating to see how he would perform in front of him. Last year’s race at Silverstone, produced quite a few fireworks, and much of the same would be expected this year.
