Sky-Rocketing F1 Tickets Finally Sold Out as Debut Miami GP All Set to Relish Mighty Audience Count

The F1 fandom is at an all-time high. As reported earlier, the British Grand Prix sold out in record time. And as predicted earlier, the wave will continue and consume other GPs as well. The Miami Grand Prix is witnessing the same demand as it is sold out over the race weekend. 240,000 spectators over the course of three days will set foot in the arena and witness Formula 1 racing.

The F1 fever has definitely hit Miami and we are racing in America. Moreover, among almost a quarter of a million spectators, there will be sporting royalty at the track as well. And if we are to believe the rumors, NBA all-time great Michael Jordan and ex-teammate Dennis Rodman will grace the paddock. Alongside them, the Los Angeles Lakers star, LeBron James might be at the track as well.

Apart from Lewis Hamilton, another legend of the sport and style icon, David Beckham could make an appearance. Now the co-owner of Inter Miami FC, Beckham can definitely take some time out to witness racing in his backyard. The Tennis duo of the Serena and Venus Williams might make an appearance as well, among others.

This goes to show the popularity of F1 as a sport at the moment. The Miami Grand Prix circuit has limited capacity at the moment. But the capacity will increase in the coming years. Especially now that the Grand Prix sold out in its inaugural race. The sky’s the limit for racing at Miami.

Drive to Survive should get credit for F1 fever

Whether we like it or not, the Netflix series Drive to Survive definitely has increased the F1 fandom. The series with four-season now has captured Formula 1 from within. Something a normal fan cannot experience from their seats. Drive to Survive has given us that platform to connect to our teams better. And also gives us a glimpse into the reality of the sport.

Heavily criticized as well for an extreme dramatization of certain situations, Drive to Survive came under fire by the drivers for the over-exaggeration of events. Especially the championship fight between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton. But even though most of it was dramatized, it made for spectacular viewing.

And at the end that is exactly what’s drawing the viewers to the sport of Formula 1.
