Hamilton imparts real racing advice

The seven-time world champion will star in and produce the F1 film to ensure it depicts the racing world accurately.

He has recently ventured into the cinematic world himself, establishing his own film and TV production company called Dawn Apollo Films.

Hamilton discussed the difficulty of finding the right tone with the F1 movie for fans both old and new to enjoy.

“My point was: Guys, this movie needs to be so authentic,” he said to GQ Magazine.

“There’s two different fan groups that we have – like, the old originals, who from the day they’re born hear the [BBC] Grand Prix music every weekend and watch with their families, and the new generation that just learned about it today through Netflix.”

“Just giving them advice about what racing is really about and what, as a racing fan, would appeal and what would not.”
