The inaugural Miami Grand Prix is almost here and the hype surrounding this grandeur event is persistently on the rise. The new era of F1 cars will be racing around the world-famous Hard Rock Stadium, home to one of the greatest NFL squads, the Miami Dolphins.

Furthermore, the ‘parking-lot’ circuit, too, promises a lot of action, thanks to the perfectly balanced corners and straights. Hence, with too many positives to look at, the anticipation around this particular racing event is at its absolute peak. And to help the fans celebrate every ounce of the race weekend, Miami has planned something quite spectacular.
