Here's How You Can Attend the Premiere of Brad Pitt's ‘F1' Movie
Formula 1 fans only have to wait another month before Brad Pitt's F1 film hits theaters. And while anyone can kick back with a tub of popcorn and an extra-large soda, some die-hard fans will get the chance to be fully immersed in the world of the movie.
Via its Moments platform, Marriott Bonvoy is offering a ticket package that gives two people access to the F1 premiere in New York City on June 16. For those who want to live out the film in real life, the deal also includes VIP race-day access to both the Singapore Grand Prix in October and the Las Vegas Grand Prix in November. With the package available to Marriott Bonvoy members until June 2, bidding is already up to more than 1.3 million points.

The F1 flick is one of the most hotly anticipated movies on the screening calendar this year. Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) has taken the helm as director, and the whole crew collaborated with all 10 F1 teams to create an accurate portrayal of the sport. Lewis Hamilton even serves as a producer, and filming took place at the 2023 British Grand Prix, as well as during the 2024 Las Vegas GP and the Mexico City GP.
The winner of Marriott's offering will get to pull up to the movie premiere in style, and they and their guest will have access to the red carpet, a meet and greet with the stars, and the VIP after party. As a longstanding partner of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team, Marriott is also giving the winner a chance to meet team members at the Singapore and Las Vegas races later in the year. At those events, you'll receive VIP lounge access and gifts from the Mercedes-AMG team, among other perks.
Through its Moments platform, Marriott gives its members access to all sorts of cultural programming throughout the year. If you're into sports but not necessarily race-car driving, the hotelier has packages related to the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup. And the company recently invited us to check out its activation during Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour stop in New Jersey. Beyhive members who won that bidding war received a hotel stay, a pre-concert glam session, tickets to the concert, and more.
With many, many ways to experience F1 like a VIP, Marriott is hopping into the ring—or onto the track—with one more.

Top Gun: Maverick director says he cast Brad Pitt over Tom Cruise in his new F1 movie because "Tom always pushes it to the limit" and "that terrifies me"
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski says he went with Brad Pitt for his new F1 movie over Tom Cruise – mainly for safety reasons. "Tom always pushes it to the limit, but at the same time is super capable and very skilled," Kosinski told Variety. "They both have the natural talent for driving. But yeah, I could see Tom maybe scaring us a little bit more." Cruise is known for his death-defying stunts, going all out for Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning by hanging from a biplane and holding his breath in a submarine quickly filling with water. In Top Gun: Maverick, the majority of the aerial stunts were done in real time and without CGI – with Cruise making the new, younger cast members undergo a bootcamp of sorts where they learned to fly for real. F1 stars Pitt as Sonny Hayes, a Formula One driver who raced in the 1990s and had a horrible crash that forced him to retire from Formula One. Many years later, Ruben, A Formula One team owner and longtime friend, asks Sonny to come out of retirement to mentor rookie prodigy Joshua "Noah" Pearce (Damson Idris) for the Apex Grand Prix team (APXGP). 'We'd have had a crash," action-vehicle supervisor Graham Kelly agreed. 'Tom pushes it to the limit. I mean really to the limit. That terrifies me. I mean, I've done loads of Mission: Impossibles with Tom and it's the most stressful experience for someone like me building cars for him, doing stunts with him. Whereas Brad listens and he knows his abilities, and I think he'd be the first to say, 'Yeah, I'm not going to do that.'" F1 is set to hit theaters on June 27.

F1: How to Watch and Stream the 2025 Spanish Grand Prix
Round 9 of the 2025 F1 season brings the action to Barcelona, with Lando Norris aiming to ramp up the pressure on McLaren teammate and current Drivers' Championship leader Oscar Piastri. Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the race as it happens, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if it's not available where you are. Norris' triumph at last weekend's Monaco GP means the English ace is just three points behind Piastri in second place, with the Australian star looking to end a two-race winless streak. The McLaren duo will both be looking to break Max Verstappen's stranglehold on the Spanish GP, with the Red Bull racer having won the last three races that have taken place in Barcelona. The Spanish GP takes place on the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on Sunday, June 1, at 3 p.m. CEST. Lights-out in the UK is at 2 p.m. BST, and it's a 9 a.m. ET (6 a.m. PT) start in the US and Canada. Australian viewers will be looking at an 11 p.m. AEST start on Monday night. The race will air in the US on ESPN and ESPN Plus. The entire race weekend, including practice sessions and qualifying, will be shown in the US on ESPN's family of TV and streaming networks. Folks who want to follow the whole race weekend will need access to the ABC and ESPN news channels on cable or live TV streaming services, or the ESPN Plus streaming service. We've broken down everything you need to know, including how to use a VPN to stream the race, and all the other F1 races this season. Max Verstappen currently holds the F1 lap record for the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya having clocked a time of 1m 16.330s, which he set back in 2023Livestream the Spanish GP in the US Every Formula One race during the 2025 season will be televised on ESPN, ESPN2 or ABC. All practice and qualifying sessions and all F1 Sprint events will also be broadcast. This race will be broadcast on ESPN. Selected races will stream on ESPN Plus, featuring two alternate streams for all races (Driver Tracker and mixed onboard cameras). James Martin/CNET ESPN Plus Carries F1 races in the US ESPN's standalone streaming service is great for casual fans of F1 and is a must-have accessory for fanatics. It costs $12 a month or $120 a year. If you're an F1 fan who's also looking to get your Disney fix, the Disney trio bundle (Hulu, Disney Plus and ESPN Plus) might end up being an even better buy. It's great for fans who love catching the parts of the race weekend that typically air on EPSN2 or ESPNews, and also want the latest Marvel movies or Star Wars shows. If you're a diehard fan of motorsports and Formula Series racing, ESPN Plus might not be for you, given that it rarely covers F2, F3 or Porsche Supercar racing. That's why ESPN Plus is ideal for casual fans who enjoy catching a race every once in a while or fans who don't want or need all of the extra bells and whistles of F1 TV but want to beef up their coverage options. Read our full review of ESPN Plus. See at ESPN Plus How to watch the Spanish GP online from anywhere with a VPN If you're traveling abroad and want to keep up with the Formula One season while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN usage to access region-specific content. If you're considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform's terms of service to ensure compliance. If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider's installation instructions, ensuring you're connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial. James Martin/CNET ExpressVPN Best VPN for streaming Price $13 per month, $100 for the first 15 months (then $117 per year) or $140 for the first 28 months (then $150 per year) Latest Tests No DNS leaks detected, 18% speed loss in 2025 tests Network 3,000 plus servers in 105 countries Jurisdiction British Virgin Islands ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices.
