The Miami Grand Prix is known for its star-studded paddock. Moreover, this year’s event was packed with celebrities from different spheres like politics, sports, among a few others. One such eye-catching celebrity was Kansas City Chief football player and Taylor Swift ‘s partner, Travis Kelce, who later exchanged numbers with race winner Lando Norris .

The Brit was the talk of the town in Miami as he achieved his maiden win in the star-studded Miami GP. He was then, subsequently surrounded by several celebrities and one of them was NFL star Travis Kelce.

The McLaren driver later shared the details of his meeting with the 34-year-old.

He[Travis Kelce] was an awesome guy! About double my height but he was a legend and very sweet, we exchanged numbers hopefully I can get to a game one day, or a Taylor Swift concert.

Lando Norris said in Radio 1 Breakfast with Greg James

Norris revealed that after meeting up with Kelce, the pair shared each other’s contact information. He then claimed, by getting Kelce’s contact, he would be able to attend a few games of the NFL and enjoy his time there or look for a few concert tickets for Taylor Swift‘s shows.

Daniel Ricciardo praised Lando Norris for his first F1 win

While Lando Norris has his eyes on future Taylor Swift concert tickets, the Brit would be looking to get a few more wins during the ongoing season. His Miami win has caught the attention on several people and among them, is also the former eight-time Grand Prix winner, Daniel Ricciardo.

The Aussie shared his excitement and praised the Englishman for his achievement.

I’m genuinely very happy for the kid[Lando Norris]. As a team-mate, obviously, you get to know them a little bit better. I got to know Lando well and you have a bit of a closer connection. I’ve got to spend some time with him. I like the kid. I think a lot of us felt it was a matter of time until he was able to have a day like this. But nothing’s guaranteed in the sport, so [I'm] happy that he did get to have a day like this, one that will forever be one of the greatest days of his life. Daniel Ricciardo said in an interview with RacingNews365

The 34-year-old claimed that it was a question of when and not if Norris would achieve glory in F1. Furthermore, he stated that the McLaren driver should enjoy it to the fullest as it was one of the greatest days of his life.

Despite the highs of Miami, there are still 18 races left in the season and McLaren would have to regularly take the fight to Red Bull to make a bid for the top spots. However, their upward trend may be hampered by Ferrari, as the Scuderia is understood to be bringing upgrades to Imola, which could halt McLaren in its tracks.
