In the movie based on his life, racer Mardenborough uses skills from online racing to find a new line on the racetrack. Did it really happen that way?
. Was there discussion about that when you agreed to be part of the movie?h, there were discussions and of course, Nürburgring was part of that discussion. But straightaway, once I agreed to be involved in the movie, I was of the opinion that it had to include Nürburgring, not only technically but also emotionally. Those scenes afterward in the hospital, that's my perspective, and it was very dark. It's still the lowest point of my life, personally, and also my career.
Were there other areas in the script where you had strong feelings about how the story needed to be told? The other example would be GT Academy, and how that process went down. My favorite part of the movie is the first 40 minutes because it explains the process of where I was in life, my situation, living at home. I was 19, kind of with no real direction. And it explains how I found the academy, how I was good at the game, how I was working in a retail store.
In the movie, there is a major plot point based on your finding a faster way around the track from gaming, that the other drivers don't use. Did you really find a new racing line from playingIn the movie, at Le Mans, there's a certain line that I use in a particular corner that I found on the simulator. There's a half-truth in that. I have found certain different racing lines.
It's not Le Mans, but certainly, I found different lines in real life, at different circuits. I have stumbled across a different race line in the wet, at Fuji again, while doing Formula 3. At the exit of Turn 1, beyond the white line, there's some "grasscrete," we call it, like some cobbled stones almost. But they're quite grippy. And I remember being out of control arriving at turn one in an F3 in a test session, very wet. Not going to make the apex.
