Hamilton spoke about working on new projects.

      Lewis Hamilton was one of the producers of the feature film F1 starring Brad Pitt. After the film's success at the worldwide box office, the Ferrari driver said that his production company Dawn Apollo Films is working on new projects, including television shows and animated films.

      Lewis Hamilton: "I had an incredible experience being involved in making the F1 film and immersing myself so deeply in the project. Director Joseph Kosinski once came up to me and said, 'I'm thinking about making this film, and I'd like to invite Brad Pitt.' At that point Brad wasn't yet attached to the project.

      And I also helped fill in some gaps in the film and was involved with it all the way through to the end credits. I spent a lot of time on the project during editing. I watched clips on my laptop and sent them my notes. I met Hans Zimmer at his amazing studio in Santa Monica. It was an amazing four years, a real honor for me.

      We have new ideas, and right now I'm developing them. I really enjoy telling stories. We need inspiring stories now more than ever, given the difficult times we live in. I love comedies, and I have a particular idea for a television show. I'm also working on a couple of ideas for animated films.

      Since F1 came out we've had so much sent to us it's just crazy. But it's not about the huge number of projects, it's more like how Quentin Tarantino does it: quality over quantity matters to us."
