A special screening of Brad Pitt's F1 movie was held for the actual Formula One drivers in Monaco on Thursday.

After years of filming in paddocks and pit lanes around the world, the Brad Pitt-led F1 movie will arrive in cinemas next month. Some of the film's stars - the current F1 drivers and team principals - got their first look at the flick during a private screening ahead of the Monaco Grand Prix.

Commented Mercedes’ George Russell: “I was really impressed to be honest, because the way they integrated the drivers and the team principals into a Hollywood movie, it was like we are real characters in this Hollywood scene. So as an F1 fan, you kind of find a bit of comedy in that, just seeing us popping up here and there with Brad Pitt!”
