Driven 2001

Driven is a 2001 American sports action film directed by Renny Harlin and starring Sylvester Stallone, who also wrote and produced. The film centers on young racing driver Jimmy Bly's effort to win the CART FedEx Championship Series auto racing championship. Prior to production, Stallone was seen at many Formula One races, but he was unable to procure enough information about the category due to the secrecy with which teams protect their cars, so he decided to base the film on the Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART) racing series. Released on April 27, 2001, by Warner Bros. Pictures, Driven received generally negative reviews from critics and was a commercial failure. Stallone includes Driven in his list of movies he has regretted making.
