Find out if Brad Pitt, 61, did his own driving at 180mph for F1 or if a stunt man was hired


The director of the upcoming sports action drama film F1 gave high praise for Brad Pitt's racing skills, while also giving insight to the leading man's training when the cameras weren't rolling.

In the movie, which boasts Tommy Hilfiger as its Lifestyle Sponsor, we see Pitt's character being summed up as he is asked to team with a young talented driver who lacks experience. Pitt, who will play the role of Sonny Hayes, wobbled on his feet several times before crashing down on to a padded mat held by a crew member. The F1 package was acquired by Apple for $130 million-$140 million – a price that doesn't include the salaries of the principal actors, director, writer and producers, Deadline reported.
