I saw the movie @F1 ... Amazing visually. Incredible racing scenes. See it on IMAX. But Brad Pitt is 61. NO ONE should look like Brad Pitt. At any age. It's just such bulls---. There is nothing funny about it. www.star-telegram.com/sports/spt-c... #F1Movie

A $300 million gamble: Can Brad Pitt do for F1 what Tom Cruise did for NASCAR?
