Earlier this week racing fans learned the title of the upcoming movie set in the world of Formula 1 starring Brad Pitt and produced in part by Lewis Hamilton.

Those same fans have now been treated to their first glimpse of the upcoming feature.

In the hours ahead of the British Grand Prix the teaser trailer for F1 was released, giving fans their first look at the upcoming movie, which has been filmed at various locations throughout the F1 schedule. Eagle-eyed fans will notice some familiar faces in the trailer along with Pitt and Damson Idris, who plays his teammate at the fictional F1 team APXGP:

That’s right, there is former Haas Team Principal Guenther Steiner, as well as the two APXGP drivers standing alongside current drivers Max Verstappen, Sergio Pérez, Fernando Alonso, and more ahead of a race.

There is also a lot of racing action, including one view from the cockpit as cars charge up the legendary hill known as Eau Rouge at historic Spa-Francorchamps, site of the Belgian Grand Prix.

F1 hits theaters next summer.
