F1 trailer: Brad Pitt returns to the fast lane in high-octane racing drama
It's finally time to start those engines. The official trailer for F1, the adrenaline-charged racing drama starring Brad Pitt , has been released—and it's promising an intense mix of speed, rivalry, and redemption. Directed by Top Gun: Maverick filmmaker Joseph Kosinski , F1 puts Pitt in the driver's seat as Sonny Hayes, a former Formula 1 driver staging a dramatic comeback. Set in the high-stakes world of professional racing, the film follows Hayes as he returns to the track to mentor a rising talent, played by Snowfall star Damson Idris . What sets F1 apart from previous racing films is its realism. Filmed at actual Formula 1 Grand Prix weekends on real tracks, the production carved out time between qualifying sessions to capture a genuine race-day atmosphere. While the racing team in the film, APX, is fictional, everything else—from the noise of the engines to the thrill of the chase—is grounded in real-world racing. Pitt and Idris reportedly underwent extensive training for their roles, stepping into real F1 cars rather than using simulated rigs. The actors could only nail their performance with the help of seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton—who also serves as a producer. 'Lewis wanted to make sure Brad could really drive,' Kosinski revealed during a recent Q&A session. 'If he couldn't, the entire vision would've fallen apart. Thankfully, he delivered.' The trailer showcases heart-pounding race sequences, heated team dynamics, and the emotional weight of a man chasing both glory and redemption, capturing the spirit of one of the world's most elite motorsports. F1 will premiere in theatres globally on June 25, followed by its North American release on June 27.

'F1: The Movie' drops its final trailer before release
Brad Pitt starrer 'F1' is one of the few big-budget original films this year. Photo: File The final trailer for the upcoming Formula 1-based film F1: The Movie has officially been released, giving fans their most detailed look yet at the story and high-octane visuals ahead of its theatrical debut next month. Brad Pitt stars as Sonny Hayes, a retired F1 driver making a comeback, paired with a young and ambitious rookie, Joshua Pearce, played by Damson Idris. The film's production captured real-world racing action by filming during multiple races in the 2023 and 2024 Formula 1 seasons, seamlessly integrating fictional APX GP cars into actual footage. Real-life tracks like Silverstone, Monza, and Yas Marina appear in the movie, alongside recognizable race incidents like the first-lap crash that took Sergio Perez out of the 2023 Mexican Grand Prix. The Las Vegas Grand Prix plays a significant role in the trailer, with a major crash on the start-finish straight and scenes of Pitt's character jogging through the city. Additional filming was done at the McLaren Technology Centre, where Idris's character trains lakeside and the fictional team's logo 'APX' can be seen. A press conference scene was also shot at this location. The film's cast includes Javier Bardem as APX GP team principal Ruben Cervantes, Kerry Condon as technical director Kate McKenna, and also features Tobias Menzies and Kim Bodnia. The movie will hit international cinemas starting June 25, followed by a North American release on June 27.

APX Lending Secures $20M Funding Amid 'Rising Demand' for Crypto-Backed Loans in Canada
Crypto-backed loan provider APX Lending has secured a $20 million accordion facility from Cypress Hills, a private credit investment firm. An accordion facility is a provision that allows a borrower to increase their borrowing without renegotiating the entire agreement. In effect, it expands like an accordion. Toronto-based APX, which offers lending with digital assets as collateral, plans to use the facility to accelerate its expansion in Canada to meet rising demands for crypto-backed loans, according to an emailed announcement shared with CoinDesk on Friday. 'This accordion facility from Cypress Hills marks a major step forward in our mission to make crypto-backed loans transparent, secure, and accessible to Canadians," founder and CEO Andrei Poliakov said in the announcement. APX received exemptive relief from the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) at the start of this month, exempting it from certain registration and prospectus requirements, which the firm said "would address investor concerns in [a] retail context." The exemption was granted "based on the particular facts and circumstances of the application with the objective of fostering innovative businesses in Canada," according to a note on the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) website. Digital asset lending has a somewhat chequered history, with various lenders collapsing amid the onset of the crypto winter in 2022. However, the now more favorable regulatory attitude to crypto in the U.S. could help transform it into a vibrant and competitive market, according to another crypto lender Ledn's co-founder Mauricio Di Bartolomeo. Di Bartolomeo predicted that Washington's friendlier approach to crypto would help rates fall, the effect of which would be evident beyond the U.S. 'Gold in a vault in Switzerland is not gold in a vault in Venezuela, but bitcoin in Colombia is bitcoin in Madrid is bitcoin anywhere in the world," he told CoinDesk in a recent interview. Andrei Poliakov will be speaking at CoinDesk's Consensus 2025 in Toronto on May 14-15. Sign in to access your portfolio
