What else can we expect from F1 75 Live?
Every team on the F1 grid – McLaren, Ferrari, Red Bull, Mercedes, Aston Martin, Alpine, Haas, Racing Bulls, Williams and Kick Sauber – will unveil their 2025 livery at the glitzy launch.
We'll also get to hear from all 20 drivers, including new Ferrari recruit Lewis Hamilton.
The launch, hosted by British comedian Jack Whitehall, will be streamed across F1's social media channels.
Fans will be entertained by F1 TV presenters, music from Kane Brown, composer Brian Tyler, award-winning artist mgk and iconic British band Take That!
F1 75 Live kicks off with "red carpet arrivals" – here's hoping Martin Brundle will be there to deliver a version of his 'grid walk'.
However, you won't get to see the 2025 cars...
Doh! We'll have to wait a little longer to take a close look at each team’s F1 car – they're already on their way to Bahrain in preparation for pre-season testing (26th-28th Feb).
Instead the teams will reveal their car liveries as fans gear up to watch the 2025 F1 season.
