Mercedes-AMG has launched a limited edition GT “APXGP” car inspired by F1, the soon-to-be-released movie starring Brad Pitt and Damson Idris.
Filmed at Formula One races around the world, F1 opens in theatres internationally on June 25. It stars Pitt as a former driver who returns to Formula One, with Idris as his teammate at APXGP, a fictional race team on the grid. The movie was shot during real life Grand Prix weekends in 2023.
Mercedes-AMG supported the film crew with F1 team know-how, several sports car models and the Mercedes-AMG official FIA F1 safety car and medical car.
