Damson Idris was trying to tune out the noise, but that's a little difficult at a Formula One race. The British-Nigerian actor was in the zone, in character, filming the high-octane summer movie “F1” with Brad Pitt at some of the world’s most famous racetracks.

Sir Lewis Hamilton actually served as a co-producer on F1, and the seven-time Formula One champion recently revealed that he “loved” working on the movie. Hamilton’s involvement brought authentic racing expertise to the production, ensuring technical accuracy throughout the film.

Damson Idris has become "a lot safer" on the road since starring in F1. The 33-year-old actor plays a Formula One driver in the new motorsport movie, and Damson has revealed how starring in the film has changed his own approach to driving.
