One of the most popular free agents of the NFL was recently spotted on a grand night in Las Vegas GP. While he was there, he took time out to appreciate the Aston Martin star Fernando Alonso. Alonso’s scary encounter earlier this month will be a core memory for each F1 fan whenever the Las Vegas GP is remembered.

Just at the beginning of the race, Alonso’s Spinyard spun and collided with Valtteri Bottas’ Alfa Romeo, forcing him into the pit. Thanks to the safety car phase, he was able to make up for the distance later. “I thought the race was over after the incident,” he confessed. After a good comeback fight, Alonso finished in the 9th spot.
