Ferrari provides details about F175 event in London and confirms plans for next year's car
Yesterday at 05:14 PM
Formula 1 teams are gearing up for an extraordinary event to kick off the 2025 season, a milestone that celebrates the 75th anniversary of the World Championship. For the first time, all 10 teams will gather at London's iconic O2 Arena for a unified season launch, offering fans an unprecedented preview of the new challengers and marking this historic occasion.
The event will feature all 20 drivers and their team principals, creating a star-studded spectacle ahead of the season opener in Australia on March 16. Adding to the intrigue, renowned journalist Lawrence Barretto has suggested that Lewis Hamilton could be granted special permission to make a separate announcement, possibly confirming his role for 2025.
While it remains unclear whether teams will showcase fully developed 2025 cars at the event, Ferrari has offered a glimpse of its strategy via a post on X (formerly Twitter). The post hints that the event might focus on livery reveals rather than complete cars, a tradition stemming from the tight winter timelines that leave teams rushing to finalize their vehicles before pre-season testing in Bahrain.
Ferrari to Debut 2025 Car Ahead of London Event
The Italian side has announced plans to unveil its 2025 single-seater ahead of the F1 75 event, hosting the reveal at its Maranello headquarters. This approach aligns with the usual pre-season routine, where teams typically launch their cars between late January and early February, either through live events or online streams. Due to development schedules, these launches often showcase show cars or repainted versions of previous models rather than the final race-ready designs.
Ferrari’s post on X invited the Tifosi to join the exclusive launch at Musei Ferrari, stating: *"From November 15th to January 12th, grab your Fan Ticket at Musei Ferrari for a chance to join the exclusive launch of Scuderia Ferrari HP's 2025 single-seater in person."* This announcement reinforces the team's commitment to delivering a memorable experience for its supporters.
F1 Addresses Ticket Scalping for Anniversary Event
The excitement surrounding the F1 75 event has led to a surge in ticket demand, with all passes selling out almost instantly. Unfortunately, many tickets have since appeared on secondary markets, listed for exorbitant prices exceeding £1,000.
Formula 1 has issued a strong warning against purchasing tickets from unofficial resellers, stating that such tickets will be invalid for entry. While reselling tickets at a markup is not illegal, it violates the terms and conditions of the sale. By taking a firm stance, F1 aims to prevent scalpers from exploiting fans and ensure that the event remains accessible to genuine enthusiasts.
"Working with The O2 we have also identified that a number of the listings are fraudulent. We advise all our fans to only buy tickets through theo2.co.uk or via AXS Official Resale," said Formula 1 in a recent press release..
With this groundbreaking season launch, Formula 1 continues to innovate, blending tradition with spectacle as it celebrates 75 years of racing excellence. Fans can look forward to a thrilling lead-up to what promises to be an unforgettable season.
