The fictional 11th team that will form the centrepiece of the new Brad Pitt Formula 1 movie has appeared for the first time at the British Grand Prix.

This weekend’s GP will mark the first time that filming for the as-yet-unnamed Apple movie will take place at an F1 event. It is understood that there will be a combination of filming in the pits and paddock throughout this weekend to give the impression the team is competing, as well as there being between seven and eight sessions for the APXGP car to run exclusively on track.

The machine is a modified F2 chassis that, with the help of Mercedes, has been converted to look like a contemporary F1 challenger. It has an extended wheelbase and has been fitted with numerous camera batteries and mounts. F1 posted the first official images of the car on Thursday morning, sporting a striking black-and-gold livery.

The story of the film revolves around Pitt who, having made an impressive early start to his F1 career, returns to the sport an as aged veteran with a back of the grid team. His teammate will be Damson Idris.

Which current driver is involved in the making of the film?

The film-makers have also called on the services of Lewis Hamilton to assist them in making the film as real as possible, as he takes a producing partner role.

Speaking recently about the film, Hamilton has said he was super excited to be involved. “It is kind of (director) Joe [Kosinski]’s focus to make sure that we’re as embedded into this sport as possible, and it’s current,” he said.

“And for me, it’s to make sure that it’s authentic and that all of you and racing fans see its authenticity and say this is believable.”
