Apple takes inspiration from controller haptics as it rolls out new F1 trailer that makes your phone vibrate with the race cars – but you need an iPhone to get the full experience

Formula 1 racing scene from F1 The Movie.

Apple brings movie marketing to the next level with the world’s first-ever haptic trailer for upcoming racing movie F1, which vibrates your iPhone right alongside the cars.

The new clip gives us another look at Brad Pitt’s ex-Formula 1 driver turned racer-for-hire, but the best part is the vibrations.
