Storyline:
The legend returns... The rookie rises... The track doesn’t forgive.
In F1, Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), a once-celebrated Formula One driver, returns to the world of elite racing after years away from the spotlight. Tasked with mentoring a gifted but unrefined young driver (Damson Idris) on a struggling team, Sonny finds himself back in the cockpit—not just as a coach, but as a teammate.
Together, they must battle fierce rivals, team politics, and the limits of their own ambition, all while racing on the world’s most iconic circuits.
As the mentorship becomes a rivalry and the lines between past and present blur, the two drivers are pushed to their physical and emotional limits. F1 explores not only the thrill of speed but the psychological weight of legacy, fear, and redemption.
