F1 has seen great success after dipping its toes in Hollywood. The hit Netflix docuseries Drive to Survive has done wonders for the popularity of the sport. The freshest venture in that department is a four-episode TV series produced by North One.

The show is devoted to the world of F1 and, more specifically, Ferrari. The show also revolves around the exit of Honda from F1 in 2008 and the rise of Brawn in 2009. It will feature interviews with Ross Brawn, Jenson Button, Rubens Barrichello, and other important figures from the era.

Hollywood star Keanu Reeves will be the one hosting the interviews. The filming of the show is already underway. The actor recently filmed an interview with the former chairman of Ferrari, Luca di Montezemolo. In addition to the script, Keanu also wanted to learn about the “Italo phenomenon”, the first-ever private high-speed train in the world.
