Watch the drivers and stars arrive for the 'F1' movie premiere
Formula 1, Hollywood, and various other luminaries are converging in New York tonight for the official premiere of 'F1 The Movie.'
Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, and Damson Idris star in the new film, which narrates the comeback story of former F1 driver Sonny Hayes (played by Pitt) as he partners with rookie teammate Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris) at the fictional APXGP team.
Several F1 drivers had a special screening of the movie before the Monaco Grand Prix last month. Seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton has been involved in the project as an advisor from its inception and has been lauded as 'instrumental' by director Joseph Kosinski. Many current grid drivers and team principals will join film stars and celebrities on the red carpet in New York's Times Square for the premiere.
