F1 (Main Theme)
DAY 20
"F1"
by Hans Zimmer (from F1: The Movie)
Since my last entry was about speed, I guess we should get to the film score on my playlist that had the biggest impact on me. I've been following Formula 1 for over a year now (ever since I got really into Drive to Survive on Netflix), and this past 2025 season was the first one that I actually followed along with in real time. So I was thrilled when the long-awaited F1: The Movie was due to be released last year... and it did not disappoint.
There were definitely things to critique and the film was far from perfect, but it was a blast to sit there and watch. Joseph Kosinski (the guy who also directed Top Gun: Maverick) knows how to make a kinetic, exciting movie and that's just what a movie about professional motor racing needs. You know what it also needs? A composer like Hans Zimmer who knows how to write themes that are absolute bangers, and "F1" is certainly no exception. This is a great, high-energy track that is right at home in the movie, and is something I can play in my office at home when I want to get motivated to get some work done.
Just don't listen to it in the car because, as the top-rated comment on the YouTube video says, "Suddenly my Toyota Camry feels like a McLaren."
