BRAD PITT STARS IN A POLISHED DRAMA SET IN THE GLAMOROUS HIGH-OCTANE WORLD OF F1 RACING

- REVIEWS BY DAMON SMITH

BRAD Pitt turns back the odometer, looking considerably younger than his svelte 61 years, and pumps the accelerator on testosterone-soaked bravado in Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski’s predictable drama, which boasts seven-time Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton as A PRODUCER.

The British driver appears fleetingly alongside Formula 1 stars in footage captured at real race weekends including Silverstone in Northamptonshire, where Pitt and co-star Damson Idris appear on the grid and in the pit lane as drivers of a fictional 11th team.
