Brad Pitt will drive in front of 140,000 fans at the British Grand Prix in July as filming for Formula One’s upcoming movie roars into action. The Hollywood star will take to the wheel in a modified F2 car as cameras start rolling on the untitled film directed by Joseph Kosinski. The car’s bodywork has been modified with the help of Mercedes to look like a real F1 car. Filming will continue as the F1 circus moves around the world for the remainder of the season, with Pitt again in the cockpit, though not during sessions either at Silverstone on the weekend of July 9 or on other occasions.
