How did the 'F1' team make a movie at real F1 races? By learning to act like a pit crew
The makers of the behemoth Hollywood production, which largely took place alongside active Formula One events, had to adopt a new role to make it to the finish line: staying out of the way.

Very fun going through these. No musician means more to me, no list of “favorite” songs is harder to parse down. If I had to choose one today, my fav Neil song is “White Line,” home to one of the greatest riffs ever—don’t it feel like rollin down the highway? Long live the king
