"Following the huge financial success of F1 The Movie 2: The Rise of Maldonado (link below) , the studio decided it would be a good idea to finance several spin-off productions. The first of which followed the hapless Mclaren team principal Martin Whitmarsh in his day to day life. Unfortunately the film tanked at the box office, causing all future spin-offs (A Ross Brawn romantic comedy was rumored) to be put on indefinite hold. F1: The Movie 3 remains in the pipeline, but a release window is not yet known." The Rise of Maldonado Trailer: www.youtube.com
