“Drive” by Ed Sheeran merges artistry and speed on the upcoming ‘F1® THE ALBUM’.
Ed Sheeran channels the power of motion and emotional urgency in “Drive,” the latest single from F1® THE ALBUM, the musical counterpart to Apple Original Films’ upcoming F1® THE MOVIE, set to hit theaters June 27.
Produced by Blake Slatkin and John Mayer, the track is a creative high-speed ride with an elite crew: Mayer on guitar, Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters) on drums, Pino Paladino on bass, and Rami Jaffee handling keyboard duties. The production layers groove and melody in ways that feel cinematic yet deeply grounded in Sheeran’s signature songwriting style.
The video, directed by Chris Villa, matches the track’s energy with a visual journey that mirrors the adrenaline-fueled storytelling of the movie. 
“Drive” offers a standout moment in a larger musical landscape, which includes artists like Burna Boy, Peggy Gou, and RAYE. The full album, dropping via Atlantic Records, adds another notch to the label’s successful history of soundtracks built for the screen.
