36: Brad Pitt’s F1 Movie: The Verdict

James Allen On F1

Finally.. it’s F1 movie launch season. But is the film, dubbed by one critic “Barbie for men” any good? Our correspondents were given a preview showing in Montreal and give their verdict. We hear from the producer Jerry Bruckheimer and one of the stars, Kerry Condon.
Plus we examine the fallout from the Canadian Grand Prix - for the second consecutive race we saw a collision in the closing stages. This time Lando Norris hit his team mate Oscar Piastri, but the dent was in Lando’s championship challenge.
We look at the external and internal pressure mounting on Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur and discuss echoes from the past when Jean Todt was under pressure and Michael Schumacher protected him.
As Renault’s CEO abruptly departs, what next for Alpine F1 as they sink to 10th in the Constructors’ Championship while doing an exec search for their fourth team principal in two years?
Fernando Alonso gave Aston Martin a season best result in Montreal on their 100th Grand Prix, but is Lance Stroll’s form a concern? And should Montreal race winner George Russell take matters into his own hands and force a move to Aston?
In the studio with James Allen, one of our regulars, Motorsport Editor-in-Chief Ben Hunt and we welcome back Autosport’s F1 Business Correspondent Mark Mann-Bryans.
