Over the weekend, Brett and I went to the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix. This was the first time one of the Formula 1 races was held in Miami. And, in true Miami fashion, it was quite the event. Over 85,000 people attended the race day itself, with over 242,000 attendees over the three-day weekend at the Hard Rock Stadium. It was far and away the largest event I’ve been to since pre-2020 and it was amazing to see how it was all orchestrated!
