Will a sequel of the F1 movie take place?

At the time, the seven-time world champion he told GPblog among others: "I think the last thing we want right now is a sequel."

"It's been four years in the making, it was a lot of work, particularly for like Joe (Kosinski, the movie's director, ed). It's time away from your family, it's time away from your kids and so, and also you just need this to just simmer for a while, like just enjoy it. I think the worst thing we probably could do is to rush into doing a sequel."

"Most sequels are way worse and so we don't need to rush it. I think if we do do a sequel, I would say let's really, really take our time in getting it even better."
