The nominated productions in detail

The Apple Original Films film tells the story of Sonny Hayes, played by Brad Pitt. In the 1990s, he was considered Formula 1's greatest talent until a serious accident nearly ended his career. Thirty years later, he lives as a nomadic race car driver until his former teammate Ruben Cervantes, portrayed by Javier Bardem, asks for his help. Ruben's Formula 1 team is on the verge of collapse. Sonny returns to Formula 1 for one last shot, driving alongside the young talent Joshua Pearce, played by Damson Idris. The film focuses not only on the sporting competition but also on personal conflicts, rivalry within the team, and the question of redemption.
