[Saba Sports News] The
upcoming F1 movie ‘Apex’ starring Brad Pitt will feature race scenes from the
upcoming 24 Hours of Daytona. The filming will focus on the 992 Porsche 911 GT3
R entered by the fictional team Chip Hart Racing, which corresponds to the
real-life team Wright Motorsports. The Wright Motorsports team consists of Adam
Adelson, Elliott Skeer, Jan Heylen, and Frederic Makowiecki as the drivers.
However, their names will be replaced in the movie by Sonny Hayes, the
character portrayed by Brad Pitt, and Patrick Long, a long-time Porsche racing
driver ambassador. The Porsche race car will play a significant role in the
storyline of the F1-themed movie. The movie depicts the story of a retired
racing driver played by Brad Pitt, who returns to the racetrack and competes
against an F1 newcomer at speeds exceeding 350 kilometers per hour. The
protagonist not only faces the intense challenge of adrenaline-fueled racing
but also grapples with the pressures of age and a generation gap. It is an
inspirational tale of a retired racing driver pushing his limits and embarking
on a personal journey.
