Most riders of the current season participated in the filming, and many reacted positively to their presence in the movie. Others have highlighted the effort of production in being accurate, although clearly use fantasy elements to create Hollywood standard entertainment.

Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari), who acts as a producer of the piece, did not comment on the premiere. Yuki Tsunoda (Red Bull Racing), Oscar Pistri (McLaren) and Franco Colapinto (Alpine) have not yet revealed their opinions.

The session had two absences: Max Verstappen (Red Bull Racing), who said he refused the invitation for being a Wednesday and having a family, and Lance Stroll (Aston Martin), who gave no satisfaction. Check out the opinions of the pilots present:

Charles Leclerc (Ferrari)

“We are seeing this as Formula 1 pilots and we always try to observe all the small details that are not exactly [precisos]but it’s a lot of Hollywood style and I find it really cool because it’s not for F1 pilots, it’s for a wider audience“reflected the Ferrari pilot.”The scenes [de pilotagem] They are amazing. I am super impressed by the way the camera was placed on the cars and the angles we see from the cars driving. I know Brad drove a little, which is very impressive and I’m sure he liked it.“

It’s amazing for F1 because we are reaching people we wouldn’t reach without this movie.“

George Russell and Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes)

“I really enjoyed watching the F1 movie for the first time. I think you will love it!“, he said Russell.

“I found it very cool“, he said Antonelli. “It is long, but well done. I think for everyone in the world, it will be a nice movie. A nice story too. I think people will enjoy it a lot.“

Lando Norris (McLaren)

“I’m bright in the movie, and that’s the important thing. It’s a very good movie, a nice story, I don’t know how much or not I can say“Said the McLaren pilot.”It’s a nice story, I think an inspiring story, had many different meanings behind everything. But a nice and very inspiring story for the young people who are coming in it.“

Fernando Alonso (Aston Martin)

“I liked the movie. I think it represents Formula 1 very well, which is never a guarantee in this type of movie“, he said Alonso. “It’s good for our sport, because everyone will want to watch a Formula 1 race, I hope, after watching the movie.“

The two -time veteran world champion added: “It’s not a documentary, it’s still a movie, so there was some [imprecisões]But I would say that almost the whole movie, in terms of action on the track, was very original and very representative, so that was good.“

Alex Albon (Williams)

“I think they found a good balance“, he said Albon. “It’s hard not to analyze everything thoroughly and simply relax and watch like a movie. I think for Hollywood, they did a good job.“

Carlos Sainz (Williams)

“I really liked it. I think for us, F1 experts, we’ll see some things a little as we sometimes see in Drive to Survive, from Netflix“, he said Sainz. “You can see that it has a half -Hollywood touch. I truly believe it will attract a new audience and will do well to people who know nothing about Formula 1.“

The Williams driver added: “For the hardcore fan and journalists, we’ll see things that can be a bit Americanized or a little Hollywood. But honestly, I really liked the movie. There were things that really surprised me and the team did an excellent job of setting up a very good Hollywood movie. Let’s see what people think.“

Pierre Gasly (Alpine)

“It was really cool to be able to watch the movie for the first time“, he said Gasly. “It’s an incredible opportunity to dive into our world. It’s a Hollywood movie, and I’m a big fan of Brad Pitt, which makes us all look great like Formula 1 riders. The production also did a fantastic job, I hope outside people enjoy it.“

Esteban Ocon (Haas)

“It was super immersive“, he said Ocon. “The piloting scenes were fantastic, something we have never seen before. There were some things that didn’t make much sense to us, like pilots within Paddock, but I really realize where Lewis [Hamilton] put your touch to try to make everything as realistic as possible. “

The Haas pilot added: “There were still some parts that needed to be a little more ‘Hollywood’, which is obviously to the whole public and needs to attract everyone’s attention. For us, there are some things that I would like to be more focused on racing and perhaps a little less in accidents… But I think it is generally the best running movie of all time and will have a resounding success.“

Oliver Bearman (Haas)

“I found the movie fantastic. It really portrays what we went through, [mas] in a slightly Hollywood way, as it should be expected“reflected the pilot of Haas. “It will make people want to watch F1, which is really the goal. Onboard filming and the work they did were really amazing, it was amazing to see the technology they can use.“

Bearman continued: “There were some funny parts, but it was to be so. Of course, there are some things that are not totally accurate, like the standard movie scene where they are side by side in straight and suddenly the other guy finds an extra march. But this is a typical movie thing, and I think it makes it super captivating to the public. There is a small minority of us who may find it a little untrue, but I believe that most will be a fantastic movie.“

Nico Hülkenberg (Sauber)

“It’s Hollywood, so you need to step back and see the overall panorama“, he said Hülkenberg. “This is not the details, but I think it’s still a new and fresh perspective. There were some good actors there too. Brad Pitt is now my model, my new goal is [pilotar na F1 aos 61 anos].“

Gabriel Bortoleto (Sauber)

“It will be very good for those who do not know much about the sport“Said the Brazilian pilot.”For us pilots, we live this every day, so we know every detail. But for those who don’t know so much about Formula 1, they can learn and can get involved with us.“

Liam Lawson (Racing Bulls)

“I think it will be huge when it comes out, it has the potential to be one of the biggest movies of the year. Captures the feeling of being in Formula 1, and this is very, very cool“, he said Lawson. “I wasn’t really running when most of the shoot was done, so I was surprised to have appeared. I didn’t know what to expect.“

The Racing Bulls driver added: “I imagine someone who is watching F1 for the first time when I see this movie will find it amazing. You can always point out flaws, but it’s a movie in the end, and I’m sure it’s the same if you are watching Top Gun. I’m sure if you are a fighter pilot and are watching a movie like that, you will analyze details there you can see differently.“

Isack Hadjar (Racing Bulls)

“I think it was strange to watch a movie about Formula 1. It was very weird and I believe it will take the sport to another dimension again“Said the French pilot.”I think it will make the sport even bigger, which is good. It’s hard to feedback as pilots because we are very critical, but if you are a child or someone who doesn’t know the sport, I think it’s the best way to start.“
