The Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix takes place around Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens on Sunday, May 2. Celebrities, stars of Formula 1 racing and fans descended on the site, home of the Miami Dolphins.
Tennis legend and Palm Beach County resident Serena Williams, late-night TV show host Jimmy Fallon, "Shark Tank" star Kevin O'Leary, tennis great Rafael Nadal, and MLS' Inter Miami star Luis Suarez were some of the celebrities seen at the Miami Grand Prix.
Kimi Antonelli, who leads the F1 point standings, is there as is F1 competitor Lewis Hamilton, who is rumored to be dating reality star Kim Kardashian.
F1 Miami Grand Prix: Take a hot lap at 166 mph (and no turn signals)

Palm Beach Post sports reporter Hal Habib was lucky enough to get in practice ride in a slick Aston Martin driven by Darren Turner, part of team that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans, on May 1 at the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Miami.
They screamed through the entire 19-turn circuit, once reaching a top speed of 166 mph.
As it was explained to Hal before the ride, he'd be experiencing 1g forces as the car would whip around turns (much less than the 5g riders experience in a real race).
“I just hope you haven’t had a big breakfast,” Mika Hakkinen, who won F1 world titles in 1998 and 1999, said to Hal before his test run.
