From the article:
Lauda (played by Daniel Bruhl of Inglorious Basterds) and Hunt (played by Chris Hemsworth of Thor) represented one of F1’s biggest rivalries to date.
Ron Howard on F1, Hunt and Lauda:
“...These are fascinating characters -- ballsy, masculine guys. It was a very dangerous era in racing, and here are two absolute individuals at the height of their powers. It makes for great drama and very exciting action. I wasn’t a die-hard Formula One fan before I read Peter’s script, but I’ve been immersing myself in this world. I think the excitement I feel as a fresh convert may be infectious.”
