The international release will happen two days before on June 25. Filming continues on in Silverstone this weekend at the British GP and it is slated to take place in Hungary, Spa Francorchamps, Mexico, Las Vegas and Abu Dhabi.

One of the executive producers Hamilton is happy with the progress that the movie is making and was fine with the plain title of the film as well. “There’s not really anything else I can add that I haven’t already said,” he said. “I think Joe and Jerry and the whole crew are so grateful to be here and have been incredibly respectful of this space and have been very, very thoughtful.
“Some people just go out and go about it their own way, but they’ve been really wanting to make sure that the heritage is very much in this movie. And so I think people… You know, the trailer is coming out soon. So I’m looking forward to people seeing that. And what else? The title. I mean, it’s probably… Well, what else are you going to call it? You know, I think it would distract from what the series is, so I like it.”
