F1 to hold first season launch in London
The Straits Times|November 14, 2024
Formula One will sell tickets to an unprecedented 2025 season launch event, featuring all the teams and drivers at London's O2 Arena on Feb 18, as the world championship celebrates its 75th anniversary year.

Formula One said in a statement on Nov 12 that tickets priced from £58 (S$99) to £113 would go on sale on Nov 15.

The two-hour extravaganza, with additional entertainment, will also be broadcast live.

"For the first time, we will bring together our fans, all 20 superstars of our sport and some very special guests to officially kick off our new season and mark our 75th year of racing," said F1 chief executive Stefano Domenicali.

The 10 teams usually hold individual launches - some virtual - for their new car liveries, with sponsors and media invited to their factories or other venues. Increasingly, fans have witnessed launches.
