"Iron Man 2," the No. 3 grossing movie of 2010, featured an explosive scene set on the Monaco Grand Prix. Hero Tony Stark owns one of the F1 cars competing in the race and decides to race the car himself. Mid-race, villain Whiplash ambushes Stark and slices Stark's car with his energy whips. The racecar rolls nose-to-tail before Whiplash slices the car into two pieces.

Pepper Potts, Starks' Girl Friday, along with Stark's personal driver, jump into a Rolls Royce and drive down the reverse route of the circuit, dodging other drivers.
