Two days ago, Justin Jefferson was giving an audition to an $3.5 F1 racing franchise, Red Bull Racing. Before the Miami Grand Prix started, a car-lover in Justin couldn’t let him miss the pre-race moments with Max Verstappen. The classy NFL wide receiver was changing tires on Red Bull’s F1 car and making headlines. But just like he stole pre-race moments in Miami, he also wanted to make an impact after the race. And that was with his signature celebration step. 

As we all know, Oscar Piastri won the Miami Grand Prix 2025, beating Verstappen and defending champion Lando Norris. But when Oscar Piastri won the race, he wanted to do the Griddy celebration that Justin Jefferson taught him before the race. But hilariously, the racer couldn’t do it like a pro. That’s why the Minnesota Vikings wide receiver posted Oscar Piastri’s Griddy celebration video on his Instagram stories. And the overlay text: “We gone work on it for the next race, ima get my boy right 😂😂,” was just apt. But as we can see, Piastri attempted it very well but couldn’t complete it. Maybe, as Jefferson said, the WR needs to ‘get his boy right.

Oscar was incredible as he swiftly crisscrossed past his opponents, beating them all for the third consecutive time. He outshone his teammate Lando Norris, who had won the Miami Grand Prix last year. The 24-year-old Australian driver etched his name into the record books once again, claiming his sixth world championship title. He has become the first McLaren driver since 1998—and only the fourth in history after Alain Prost, Ayrton Senna, and Mika Häkkinen—to win three races in a row.

This year was especially memorable for him, as he celebrated his Grand Prix victory with Justin Jefferson’s signature ‘Griddy’ dance, making his McLaren team proud. But how did Jefferson teach him the celebration move?

Piastri’s victory dance: How Justin Jefferson taught him the Griddy 

Two days ago, Bleacher Report shared a video of Justin Jefferson with Oscar Piastri where the NFL WR was teaching him the Griddy celebration step by step. According to Gemini, Griddy is a dance celebration where an individual taps their heels, swings their arms back and forth, and sometimes makes an ‘OK’ sign with their hands. People have seen Joe Burrow doing this after the Bengals‘ win over the Broncos on December 31, 2024. 

The Griddy celebration never fails to spread the vibe if you do it anywhere. The football witnessed it on many instances, but the world saw the Griddy for the first time on an F1 track. After doing the celebration, he said, “After qualifying yesterday… I thought that it was definitely not going to be needed.” He also added, “So that was my first attempt at a griddy live on world TV. I stayed true to the bet, but that’s the one and only time you’re going to see me doing that.” And after the Bleacher Report clip went viral with more than 1.5 M views, Jefferson had reacted to it saying, “OSCARRRRRR!!! LETS GOOOOO.” And he did it. 

Oscar Piastri made a terrific start and ended the race with a win. This was his third consecutive and sixth overall Grand Prix. But even Oscar can’t deny the fact. The real show-stealing moment was the Griddy celebration he did for Justin Jefferson.
