If F1 drivers were in Films

Post by Alextrax52 »

This little piece of work from Ataxia has led me to wonder what characters and what Films would F1 drivers be suited for

Ataxia wrote:
Empire Magazine wrote:Tintin and the World Championship Trophy is an exciting new film starring many of the current F1 fraternity; reigning champion Sebastian Vettel takes the titular role as he brings the timeless creation of Belgian cartoonist Hergé to life. In supporting roles are Kimi Raikkonen; the Finn will voice Tintin's dog Snowy, as Lewis Hamilton will don a blue turtleneck in his role as Captain Haddock. Highly regarded Red Bull chief designer Adrian Newey will fittingly join the cast as Professor Calculus, as the Schumacher brothers take the roles of bumbling detectives Thomson and Thompson.

The plot follows Tintin unveiling a fiendish plan by the enigmatic Professor Grey (Paul di Resta) and his henchman, the swarthy swashbuckler Santiago (Fernando Alonso), as the evil Grey plans to put into action his fiendish attempts to remove the world of all known colour.

For some reason, I could imagine Button in a Bond film.

I could very well imagine Kobayashi in lots of martial arts movies. Or for that matter most other japanese drivers (in Inoue's case, it would obviously be a comedy)
Narain Karthikeyan in some random bollywood dance-scene would be kind of epic too.

Inoue and Hamilton in Rush Hour. Although the roles would be reversed because Inoue is the funny guy.

I think I recall both Phil Hill, and Graham Hill having a short acting gig in Grand Prix as fictional drivers.
