F1 The Movie has been largely anticipated and hotly debated by movie fans and Formula 1 Fans alike. I had a chance to attend an early screening with WB and Apple Original Films, and as the Brad Pitt film hits theaters this week, this is my honest review.

Things that work: the innovations made to cameras to film cars on track, action sequences that make you feel like you're in the car yourself, the closest mainstream audiences will ever get to being in a Formula 1 car, highlighting racing series like the 24 Hours of Daytona and Baja, F1 cameos, most of the jokes, and the return of the summer blockbuster.

Things that don't: the way women are portrayed in the film, cutting Simone Ashley, and some required suspension of disbelief.

We're breaking down the accuracy of the film, what you can learn about Formula 1 from it, the creative team behind the movie, and whether I think it will create new F1 fans, and if you should see it as a F1 fan.

The Monaco Grand Prix is almost always won in qualifying, and this year was no different. From an incredible record breaking pole lap, to a recovery from a lock up off the starting line, Lando Norris managed to win the most historic race of the year and keep himself in the battle for the championship against Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri. 

The addition of the mandatory two stop didn't change much, other than a debacle between George Russell and Alex Albon as Mercedes, Williams, and VCARB all deployed the same strategy to maintain position on track.

And, a retirement for Fernando Alonso and Pierre Gasly, Liam Lawson's first points, and trouble with the Ferrari pit wall.

Miami was full of inclement weather, a sprint race shocker, safety cars, and tense team radio.

Kimi Antonelli became the youngest pole sitter in any format in Formula 1 history when he took pole position for the sprint race, and despite unlucky performances, made everyone understand why he was chosen for the Mercedes seat. Lewis Hamilton had an incredible sprint race result, giving him another podium, but Ferrari as a whole fell apart in the Grand Prix. Between tense radio messages and poor strategy, things just can't seem to gel with Charles Leclerc and the new team. And, Williams radio revealed ignored team orders, with an impressive finish for both cars as they continue to climb with Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz.

And, Oscar Piastri increases his championship lead over his teammate, Lando Norris.
