While it’s still yet to be seen what the track has in store for the fans; the grand festivities have begun even before the race. And let us tell you, it was majestic. Fans were treated to a great show when Team Principals and Drivers descended down on Hard Rock Stadium to inaugurate the weekend.
Is Lando playing his song in Miami?
Twitter didn’t shy away from hilarity as Lando Norris soon joined Kygo during his set. While there was another song being played, Twitter users managed to dub in the recently released song “Let’s go Lando” by the “Pitstop Boys”. It almost seemed like as if it was real but alas one can soon figure out that it was fake.
