Synopsis

*The Seat* is an inside look at a significant driver change in Mercedes and Formula 1 history. It documents the private conversations that led the Mercedes team and Team Principal and CEO Toto Wolff to promote 18-year-old Italian-born Kimi Antonelli to a Formula 1 driver, making him the third-youngest rookie in the sport's history. The film follows Antonelli in the lead-up to his first Formula 1 season as he prepares to take on his new role.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 18

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
