Two worlds collided as real-life F1 drivers met the star-studded cast of F1 movie at the red carpet of the New York premiere.
The drivers had the honour of attending their own private screening last month ahead of the Monaco Grand Prix; however a number of athletes attended the big night on Monday.
The film stars Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, a former F1 star chasing glory with rookie teammate Joshua Pearce, portrayed by Damson Idris.
Slated to be released internationally on June 25, F1 is directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Brad, seven-time F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton, and Jerry Bruckheimer.
Here's the list of F1 drivers who turned heads at the red carpet of the New York premiere

On the other hand, ignoring the neutral-tone, British driver George Russell posed solo on the carpet in a chocolate brown suit.
