Trump's deputy communications chief, Margo Martin, shared videos of him on X, one of which showed a crowd chanting “USA” as he arrived outside the McLaren Racing garage on pit lane.

At the start of the race, Martin also showed Trump looking toward the race track while wearing his red “Make America Great Again” hat.

Trump was just one of many big names in Miami for the Formula 1 race, as Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Patrick Mahomes were among the celebrities in attendance.

Tom Garfinkel, CEO of the Miami Dolphins and managing partner of the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix, did not reveal whether Trump or other celebrities would be seen at the race due to security concerns.

“I am not authorized to disclose participants for security and privacy reasons,” Garfinkel said, according to USA Today. “We don't talk about communicating with people, but I will say there will be no fundraising at the event.”

The controversy arose before Trump's arrival, as one of his supporters, Steve Witkoff, wanted to sell his tickets to his suite at the Paddock Club for $250,000, which would go to Trump's 2024 campaign. However, this was quickly rejected by race officials, who sent a letter to Witkoff.

“Political campaigning has its place, and it is not in our race,” we can read in a letter published on social networks. “We invite you and your guests to attend our event and enjoy your suite. However, we respectfully request that this is done in accordance with our very clear licensing agreement.”
