After his success on the football fields of the UK, actor Ryan Reynolds invests in the tracks of Formula 1. The translator of the hero Deadpool and his partner and fellow professional Rob McElhinney paid 171 million pounds sterling and 1 billion dollars to buy 24% of the shares of Alpine, one of the Formula 1 teams.
A 24% stake in Alpine was acquired by Maximum Effort Investments, an investment group that includes Reynolds and McElhinney as its majority partners. Actor Michael B. Jordan also owns part of the group. The deal involving the Formula 1 team and Hollywood artists has been reported by the Daily Mail.

Reynolds and McElhinney lived a modern fairy tale with Wrexham, one of the most traditional football teams in Wales. The two bought the team in November 2020. In the just-ended British football season, the men’s team managed to reach the fourth division for 2023/2024.
