However, shooting for the movie was interrupted last year due to the Hollywood strike by the Screen Actors Guild, which lasted 118 days.

The film has made a concerted effort to stay realistic and is set to use authentic team names and drivers, with Lewis Hamilton also having a hand in the movie's production.

Previously, the Brad Pitt movie was expected to be called 'Apex'. However, it appears that it now has a new name.

Teasing a sneak peek of the film at this weekend's British Grand Prix on Twitter, Formula 1 revealed that the movie will simply be called 'F1', using the sport's official logo on the movie poster.

According to the tweet, fans attending the British Grand Prix at Silverstone this weekend will get a sneak peek of the movie on Sunday, but the extent of that and at what time remains to be seen.
