Your thoughts on F1 movie?

I have been reading and hearing plenty of good things about the F1 movie. Have you seen this? What are your thoughts about the movie?

@FanAmp

My wife wants to see it. Rarely does she want to see a movie so we will likely see it this weekend and update here when we do.

I had no idea Americans even knew what F1 was - I am glad that you taking European “sports” and just change small things with it and brainwashed your population into believing that is the most superior version hasn’t worked with all “sports”

@FanAmp

Sorry for the delayed response. I meant to come back here and post my thoughts and just escaped my mind. It was a great movie. Acting was well done. Great plot and character development. @Calde13 I don't know anything about F1 racing, let alone about racing in general for that matter, but it definitely piqued my curiosity and what a rabbit role of Google searches followed LOL. I definitely recommend this movie. A great ride (pun intended)!

@Calde13

Soccer, F1, rugby, what others would traditionally be considered a Euro sport? Just curious. I was having this conversation with my wife during the film that F1 with their race in Las Vegas and now this movie clearly is trying to market to Americans. Love your thoughts on this as I honestly don't know what other frontiers there are yet to bridge regarding Euro sports to American ones.

I am not 100% I know what you are asking - but I will try to answer and then hope that answer your question :) - most “big” European sports have either already been introduced to you or have an American made equivalent - both baseball and American football derives more or less directly from an European sport - and NASCAR of course is F1.

Over here there are people that watch NFL and NBA - pretty much none watches NHL and I don’t even think you could watch MLB if you wanted to ! 

There is a few sports over here - I don’t even think a lot of you guys have heard about at all (maybe) - handball and badminton are ok big, horse racing is huge over here compared (in the nordics), in the south it is more sports like bull fighting etc. , cycling is also way bigger over here, and then there is tons of winter sports: Ski jump, ski shooting, curling, alpine riding etc I don’t know how much traction sports like that has over there - but I think the main take away and reason is because even though America is almost the same size as Europe we as people are way more diversed - we come from different countries and cultures that for most of them span 1000s of years - and landscapes and weather conditions that also span a lot (which affects what sports are popular in different parts)

And we invented all those I mentioned - as sports at least - I don’t know if we can take credit for inventing the concept of horse riding - I think most old tribes around the world also had figured out that concept 

you are too much
