you’re telling me sonny shows up, decades out of f1, tells the aerodynamicist (and strategist?) to shove it, and they start winning? as an f1 fan, this movie is completely ridiculous. for non-f1/racing fans, i’d think the weak plot doesn’t make this more than an ok popcorn flick
could do without the love story and board member drama. would have been more interesting to see the friendship between sonny and ruben explored more fully as a reflection against sonny and joshua
if you’re a racing fan, you’ll notice many references to past events:
crashgate
rosberg - hamilton fights
gasly crashes with teammates
peroni curb launch
grosjean fireball
red bull repairing their car on track
abu dhabi restart between hamilton and verstappen
they did a good job of explaining some of the finer points of f1 and its rules for an uninformed audience
