Ntertain Studios, the powerhouse behind compelling Latino narratives like “Los Montaner” and “La Firma,” announced the development and production of a new documentary series about Colombian Formula 1 legend Juan Pablo Montoya's illustrious career. This unscripted series, launched on Wednesday in an event in Miami, will be directed by Fernando Villena ("The Golden Boy", "The Alpinist") and produced by a team of acclaimed talents, including Lex Borrero and Santiago Zapata ("MONOS", "Los Montaner"), in co-production with Mariano Zabaleta ("Summa Sports & Entertainment"), Dubraska Arias ("Rockanfella"), Jonathan Wul, and Hernan Salama ("Scarpetta Media").
The project dives deep into Montoya's record-breaking achievements in several top-tier racing divisions—including CART, IndyCar, F3000, F1, and NASCAR. Beyond his spectacular track record, the documentary will also shed light on his life after retirement and his devoted mentorship of his son's emerging racing career. Juan Pablo Montoya himself expressed excitement about it and hopes that his story will inspire the next generation. "Sharing my story with Ntertain is a privilege. I think it is really cool for people to know where I come from, what I’ve done, and what I’ve learned. I hope it inspires not only racing fans but anyone who believes in the pursuit of their dreams against all odds," commented.
On his part, Lex Borrero, CEO of Ntertain Studios and executive producer, referred to the importance and legacy of the protagonist: "As we expand our catalog into sports, Ntertain Studios continues to spotlight the dynamic stories of Latino talent that resonate globally. Juan Pablo Montoya's journey is not just about racing; it's a powerful narrative of dedication and legacy," noted.
Finally, Santiago Zapata, executive producer, underscored the influence that Montoya had on his own life: "Juan Pablo Montoya was my and many fellow Colombians' introduction to Motorsports, but what has always inspired me the most about him is his never-back-down attitude and his resolution to succeed against all odds. This underdog story about perseverance and commitment to a craft will inspire audiences regardless of age and nationality," added
