Formula One is getting a tune up

FORMULA ONE: Formula One has hired the composer of several Fast and Furious movies to write a new theme tune for the motor racing organisation. Brian Tyler, an Emmy-nominated American has made music for Avengers: Age of Ultron, Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, and also wrote theme music for ESPN’s National Football League shows. ‘What an honor to be chosen to compose the Formula 1 theme!,’ Tyler, who was a guest at last year’s US Grand Prix, said on his Twitter feed. ‘This is a life long dream come true as I am a massive #formula1 fan. Thank you #F1!’ Formula One this week also launched a television streaming product, F1 TV.
