Realistic cinematic coverage of a Formula 1 Grand Prix.

Behind Hamilton, Stephen Hawking appears in a realistic motorized wheelchair on the same track — captured by trackside cameras as he overtakes Hamilton. The crowd gasps, pit crew reacts, and slow-motion replay shows the overtake. Make it feel like a real sports broadcast — natural daylight, accurate physics, human realism, and real F1 sounds.
