In recent years, Hollywood has been keen to deliver racing fans plenty of entertainment, and it shows no signs of slowing down.

It seemed like there weren't any big racing-centric blockbusters for a while, at least ones that broke into the mainstream. 2013's "Rush" (the story of F1 title rivals Niki Lauda and James Hunt) is the only one that really stood out from the last decade until 2019's "Ford v Ferrari" arrived -- a biographical drama centered on racer Ken Miles and Carroll Shelby's mission to build a car that could defeat Ferrari at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The film made over $200 million worldwide and went on to win multiple Academy Awards.
