Halfway through a climactic race in “F1 The Movie,” something goes horribly wrong for our heroes. And yet, through a fluke of Formula 1’s complex and inscrutable rules, the underdog Apex Grand Prix team comes out on top. (Don’t worry, this isn’t a spoiler. It’s a recurring theme throughout the two-and-a-half-hour-long film.)

The actor stars alongside Damson Idris and Javier Bardem as a washed-up racer who returns to Formula One to save a failing squad in a new movie by ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ director Joseph Kosinski.
