The appearance will offer F1 fans their first golden chance to see and hear from Ollie ahead of his much-anticipated rookie season, with Sky F1 commentator David Croft interviewing him on the main stage during the day to gain insight into the 19-year-old’s grand prix preparations.

A stand dedicated to Bearman, featuring the Formula 4 car in which he won both the German and Italian national championships in 2021, will be included at ASI to launch Oliver’s own brand of merchandise. A MoneyGram Haas F1 car will also feature in a display that will mark 75 years of the F1 World Championship.

Legendary among motorsport fans, the four-day ASI will run from 9-12 January 2025 in the halls of Birmingham’s NEC and will be split into two sections: a two-day trade show for industry professionals and a two-day public show.

Autosport International is often dubbed “4 shows in 1”. That’s because it includes The Engineering Show, The Motoring Show, The Performance Show and The Live Action Arena. This year, they will be celebrating 75 Years of F1! The cars, the stars, and the most talked-about racing moments that have thrilled motorsport fans around the world.

You’ll also find an exciting range of motorsport clubs and championships, covering the grass roots and karting, right up to the pinnacle of elite race competition. And look out for a mouthwatering range of cars across the Motorsport, Performance and Live Action Arena halls.

Remember, every Autosport International weekend ticket includes access to the 5000-seat Live Action Arena. Take your seat in the racing oval, for a driving show packed with smoking stunts, deafening drifting and racing thrills.
