Does the movie have a special post- or mid-credits scene ?
As per comingsoon.net The 'F1' movie doesn't have a special post-credits scene. Instead of the Brad Pitt-starring movie having a mid-credit just like other big-budget films, which is rolling interest in the fans.
Explanation of the mid-credit scene
In the mid-credit scene, Sonny Hayes arrives in Baja, California, a rough, desert region known for off-road racing like the Baja 1000. Covered with dust and reflective, he approaches a local off-road racing team and inquires, 'Still looking for a driver?'
The scene then cuts to Hayes behind the wheel, tearing through the sandy tracks as the credits roll, showcasing his insatiable passion for competition.
This moment reflects an earlier scene where Hayes, before Ruben's F1 offer, scutinized joining the Baja circuit, a basic showing of his love for diverse racing challenges. The sequence, accompanied by Hans Zimmer's fluctuating score, captures Hayes's relentless drive.
Chance of sequel or spinoff?
As per the same sources, while the scene leaves the room with unanswered questions to leave space for future stories, it doesn't honestly demand a sequel. The open-ended nature of Hayes racing into the desert could also lead to a spinoff exploring off-road circuits, but F1's 141-million-dollar budget and focus on Formula One's global appeal make a Baja-centric follow-up not very likely. Other storyline paths, like Hayes mentoring a young driver or facing a competitive team, are more feasible for a sequel, as it's given the film's whole cast, including Damson Idris as his teammate.
