While many drivers attended the premiere in New York City, Max Verstappen did not do so, citing the fact he wants to spend time with his family.

On social media, F1 posted footage of the two actors being introduced to the rest of the grid at a special drivers' briefing during the 2023 British Grand Prix.

"I promise we're going to do our best to do you guys justice. What Joe [Kosinski] can do with the camera and how we can show speed, we can show G-force. And I'm really excited about this one," said Brad Pitt.

Idris then joked: "I will say, I will go flat through Abbey and Copse, so I'll try not to make you look too slow."
