The album closely ties into the film’s theme, incorporating elements from Hans Zimmer’s original score for ‘F1’.” Billboard reports that the project delivers high-energy visuals, including neon night scenes and dynamic racing imagery. The first track, “Lose My Mind,” featuring Don Toliver and Doja Cat, was released ahead of the full album launch.
