Formula 1’s highly-anticipated launch event takes place today (Tuesday, February 18) with all ten teams set to unveil their new liveries ahead of the 2025 season.
With testing for the new campaign just weeks away, excitement is building ahead of what could be one of the most entertaining seasons of all time.

With no major regulation changes over the winter, cars are expected to converge even further, with several drivers set to be in contention for the drivers’ championship.
Will Red Bull star Max Verstappen make it five in a row, for example, or has McLaren’s Lando Norris learned enough from his title defeat last year to bounce back and grab it with both hands this time around?
Of course, we cannot forget about Ferrari. Seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton has joined the team over the winter, and alongside Charles Leclerc, the team have a formidable driver lineup, with either star more than capable of challenging for the title given their car is quick.
Announced back in November, F1 75 Live is an event designed to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the sport by bringing all ten teams together to launch the 2025 campaign.
Taking place at the 02 Arena, London, all of the teams — Alpine, Aston Martin, Ferrari, Haas, McLaren, Mercedes, RB, Red Bull, Sauber, and Williams — will be present, along with their drivers and team principals.
Teams will be launching their 2025 liveries for the first time at the event, with the night also set to include a star-studded entertainment lineup.
The event also promises to feature interviews with key figures from within the sport in what should make for an essential watch for any Formula 1 driver.
In recent days, F1 confirmed who would be performing at the F1 75 Live launch, as well as who is hosting.
Hosting duties are set to be carried out by British comedian Jack Whitehall, whilst there are set to be music performances from Kane Brown, MGK, Take That and Brian Tyler.
Brown is a huge star having been the first artist to achieve simultaneous number ones on all five major Billboard country charts, whilst MGK is known for his high-energy performances and unique blend of rap, rock, and pop.
Take that, meanwhile, are one of the UK’s most successful music acts of all time, selling over 45 million records worldwide.
Brian Tyler, who created the F1 theme tune, will appear as his alter-ego, Are We Dreaming, delivering a unique and immersive audio-visual experience.
The F1 75 Live launch is set to take place today (Thursday, February 18) with the live action set to start at 8 pm GMT.
