‘F1’ Soundtrack Features Ed Sheeran, Doja Cat, Rosé, and Tate McRae

The spectacle of Formula 1 does not exist without the noise: the sound of rubber zipping over the track at 200 mph, the clatter of gravel as a car skids over a corner, the collective gasp of a crowd as a chassis crumples into a barrier — or another car — at unfathomable speed, and the pop of a champagne cork over a trophy.

Now, following its success with the Oscar-, Golden Globe-, and Grammy-winning life-in-plastic soundtrack for Greta Gerwig’s Barbie, Atlantic Records is looking to bring the energy of the racetrack to the big screen with a star-studded companion to F1.

Ed Sheeran, Doja Cat, Burna Boy, Raye, Tate McRae, Don Toliver, Madison Beer, Rosé, Tiësto, and Chris Stapleton are just some of the artists on F1 the Album. The soundtrack’s 17 original songs will buttress Brad Pitt, Damson Idris, and Javier Bardem’s high-speed international podium chase in theaters this summer. See the full lineup below. 

The album is produced and overseen by Grammy Award winner and Atlantic Records West Coast President Kevin Weaver, the producer of Barbie the Album, Twisters: The Album, and other soundtracks. The F1 companion LP will be available in full on June 27, the same day as the film’s premiere. Atlantic Records and F1 will be counting down the film’s release with weekly single drops — beginning with Wednesday’s release of “Lose My Mind,” a synth-heavy collaboration between Toliver and Doja that feels like cruising down a neon-illuminated avenue on a late-night drive.

Which is exactly where we find Toliver in the single’s accompanying music video. Directed by Christian Breslauer — of Lil Nas X’s “Industry Baby” fame — the video is a study in the anatomy of a Formula 1 car, a race suit, and Doja’s engine grease-slicked body. Detail shots showcase the gold and black livery of the fictional car that Pitt and Idris will pilot in F1 — one that any real team on the track wouldn’t hesitate to adopt. 

From Dom Dolla’s moody electronica to Stapleton’s roaring country to Peggy Gou’s meditative Eurodance and Myke Towers’ lowrider-worthy reggaeton, the F1 soundtrack charts a path that mirrors the seasonal race calendar’s journey across the globe.  

Directed and produced by Joseph Kosinski alongside co-executive producer Jerry Bruckheimer, the film stars Pitt as washed-up “greatest that never was” driver Sonny Hayes, who agrees to come out of retirement to help his friend and former teammate Ruben Cervantes (Bardem) save his struggling racing team, Apex Grand Prix. His new teammate, Joshua “Noah” Pearce (Idris), is a rookie upstart with all the raw talent and none of the experience, and the two will battle for the checkered flag in a cutthroat sport where no one shares a podium — much less a championship.

Formula 1 devotees will almost inevitably be aware of the film’s development, given that major portions of it were filmed on site at major race tracks over the course of the 2023 and 2024 season. Formula 1’s biggest names will also feature in the film. All 20 drivers of 2023, including six-time champion Lewis Hamilton (who is also a producer on the project), four-time champion Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc, Lando Norris, Carlos Sainz, George Russell, Fernando Alonso, and Sergio “Checo” Perez, will make appearances. Fan-favorite, former Haas F1 team principal Guenther Steiner is also set to have a cameo. 

The first full trailer for F1, released in March, promises visual thrills that will put viewers who haven’t had the pleasure of testing out a simulator closer to the track and the cars than ever before. High-speed overtakes, brutal collisions, and paddock drama combine for what is poised to be the blockbuster of the summer. “The F1 movie is as authentic a racing movie as has ever been,” Hamilton said in a behind-the-scenes video released earlier this year. 

The film will be back on the real-world paddock this weekend at the Miami Grand Prix, where Atlantic Records and F1 will host a takeover featuring a replica of the film’s Apex Grand Prix team, album previews, race simulators, and appearances by some of the stars and artists collaborating on the film.

In F1’s soundtrack, Atlantic Records promises a high-rpm joyride for the ages, and they have yet to build a car that can get us to premiere day fast enough.
