The star-studded opening night of entertainment, with special guests and live music presented by Heineken® was the perfect curtain-raiser to the inaugural race in Miami Gardens. The F1® drivers, team principals and the racers from the all-female W Series who will compete on the brand-new 5.41km Miami International Autodrome this weekend entertained the huge crowds who had gathered beneath the podium.
