The Circus had a slight interest in seeing the movie because at one time it was to be about F1 til Bernie got the true measure of Stallone and killed the deal. For the most part "Driven" received terrible reviews from the Circus, except for a few Circus inmates and wannabes:
Button and Webber liked the movie so much they’re learning synchronized swimming to get parts in the sequel because Circus rumors say they're not fit enough for F1.
Jackie was on the phone right after seeing the movie, selling his shares in Warner Brothers. His secret desire is to be richer than Bernie.
Michael is pretty sure Beau Brandenburg's character is based on him. He's thinking about calling his lawyer to see if his trademaked image has been stolen without authorization.
Michael’s teammate thinks after his F1 career is over he’ll have a place in CART – so many crashes! But he’s a little concerned about being in an airborne crash and is more determined than ever to stay in Ferrari’s good graces.
Villeneuve is totally embarrassed that he has a cast credit in the movie. He thinks he’ll try to get back together with Dannii. She broke up with him to star in “Notre Dame de Paris.” Jacques is sure her movie was worse than his… Memo to self: “Go see Dannii’s movie before you call her.”
Former World Champion, Nigel Mansell, refused to see the movie. He claimed not to understand why he wasn’t given a role in the movie. After all, he’s actually had experience driving Champ cars.
David and Ron are still arguing about Dennis’ “brain fade” comments and haven’t had time to take in the movie.
When asked for his opinion about the movie, Bernie said, “Don’t make an appointment with Burt Reynolds’ plastic surgeon.”
After this episode of F1 Circus and their thoughts on “Driven,” we’re sure this is how movie theaters worldwide will look.
