Brad Pitt, who is playing a Formula 1 (F1) driver in his next film, wore a racing outfit and walked the starting grid alongside actual F1 drivers at the British Grand Prix. Brad Pitt, who plays a seasoned Formula One driver in the movie, was spotted with co-star Damson Idris sporting a white and black racing outfit with the logo of their fictional team, APXGP, reported People.
"Welcome to the grid, APXGP..#F1," the official Instagram account for Formula 1 wrote alongside a series of snapshots of the fictional team on the grid - with Pitt and Idris, 31, standing alongside drivers including current F1 world champion Max Verstappen and Ferarri's Carlos Sainz.
Brad Pitt was also filmed driving on the track for the movie and admitted he was feeling a "little giddy" after the adrenaline-filled drive in front of 140,000 race fans at the Silverstone race track in Northamptonshire, around 70 miles north of London, according to People.
