One fan compared him to his ex-F1 driver and teammate Kimi Räikkönen. While others labeled him as the GOAT.

However, Seb was not the only driver who was protesting against the FIA. His longtime rival, Lewis Hamilton, also joined in. The Briton wore blinding amounts of jewelry to the press conference earlier this day. However, the 7-time world champion was particularly displeased about the jewelry ban.

However, one thing is for sure, the start to the first-ever Miami GP has not been disappointed. In the meantime, the fans are eagerly waiting for the action come race day.
