The global box office earnings of F1: The Movie have surged by an additional $1 million this past week,

pushing total revenues to $624.368 million since its theatrical release on June 27.

Produced by Warner Bros, the film has quickly become one of the most talked-about Formula

1-themed movies of the year.

F1: The Movie Box Office Breakdown

Domestic (U.S.) Revenue: $189.468 million

International Revenue: $434.900 million

Why Is F1: The Movie So Successful?

thrill, and intensity of real Formula 1 races.

2. Blending History with Drama

F1: The Movie intertwines the historical roots of Formula 1 with a modern storyline, creating an emotionally

engaging experience for both sports fans and drama lovers.

4. Support from Real Racing Icons

Seven-time F1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton offered his expertise during the production, ensuring

authenticity in racing scenes and technical accuracy, further boosting the film’s credibility.

Age in Formula 1: Realism vs Fiction

While Brad Pitt’s real-life age of 61 may seem unrealistic for a modern-day F1 driver — especially

compared to current active drivers like Fernando Alonso (nearly 44) — the sport has seen older

champions in its earlier decades.

Notable examples include:

Louis Chiron and Philippe Étancelin, who raced at 55

Luigi Fagioli, who won at 53
