Shaquille O’Neal is a fan of many sports. Having cemented his legacy in the world of basketball, the Big Man now shows up for events of other sports as well. He is also a huge fan of motorsports and that is evident from his podium appearances, hosting parties and simply hanging out with some of the biggest stars of the sport.

He recently took his love for F1 a level up by declaring that he wants to own an F1 team. Although Shaq’s response was to a question on which NBA team he would like to own, he ended his answer with the willingness to explore the F1 world as well.

The Big Man said, “Even though I can’t fit in one of those damn cars”, he is willing to invest in the sport if a good opportunity presents itself. So, if there’s someone from F1 who has a good enough proposal for the Big Man, now is the time to reach out to him. The 4x NBA champion is also on the lookout for an NBA team as he wishes to become a majority owner in the league. But, if that dream is going to take some time to come to fruition, F1 is his next best choice.
