Brad Pitt Snubs F1 Interviewer Martin Brundle, Racing Community Pissed

Brad Pitt is perhaps making a film about Formula 1 racing, however he certain does not respect the game in actual life — at the least that is what F1 Twitter’s saying after snubbing one in every of their heroes.

The A-lister was on the bottom these previous few days down in Austin — the place the U.S. Grand Prix’s been happening all weekend — however on Sunday … the man skirted out of an interview with Sky Sports’ Martin Brundle … a famed former race automobile driver turned pundit/journalist.

Brundle — who’s well-known lately for his grid walks, the place he interviews celebs (typically awkwardly) impromptu — received a little bit of a chilly shoulder from BP in individual.

Now, in Brad’s protection … he did not completely not reply to Brundle’s questions — ones concerning the film, which he says cannot reply because it’s prime secret — however clearly did not wanna chat. It would appear like a no hurt, no foul sitch … however some on-line are offended on MB’s behalf.

Brundle himself appeared perturbed — saying to the digital camera, “They’re known at ‘pit stops'” if they do not need you speaking to Brad Pitt. Bird app customers are largely agreeing, arguing he ought to respect the tradition and speak to Brundle, whose interviews are par for the course on the grid and who’s an F1 staple. In different phrases, play ball once you’re on our turf, Brad!

It’s not the primary time a celeb has dismissed Brundle — Megan Thee Stallion famously did it final yr — however on this case, some are suggesting that since Brad is actually making a movie about F1 … he ought to pay attention to the main gamers, Brundle included, and present reverence.

Outside of this salty interplay … Brad has largely been receiving the rock star therapy throughout his time in Texas. He’s nonetheless a golden boy in Hollywood — and this would possibly not change that.
