Martin Brundle’s hilarious F1 grid walk - mistaken identity & blanked by Becks
The grid was packed with a who’s who of the celebrity and sp🦂orts world at Formula One’s inaug𓃲ural Grand Prix at this new location.
The Sky Sports pun🔥dit and ex-🍨F1 driver spotted Beckham, owner of Inter Miami FC, and darted towards him only to be denied.
"We're gunna have to get quite pushy aren't we!"

Martin 🅠Brundle hyping himself up to try and 🥃speak to David Beckham
Brundle said: “There is a melee around him so we’ll h🐻ave to get quite pushy!
“David, it’s Martin, Sky!”
But Beckham turned in the opposite direction to look at Max Verstappen’s Red Bull - the team whose team principal Christian Horn♑er is, of course, also married to a Spice 💖Girl.
“That’s the second time he’s blanked me,” Brundle said. ꦍ“I didn’t even get a free-kick on that one!”
"Another one!"

T🐲hat♉ was everything we expected and more for DJ Khaled
Brundle then hilariously thought heඣ had snared an exclusive with NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes.
He allowed Mahomes to explain what a privilege iꦏt was to be stood on the F1 grid pre-race… only to realise mid-intervi✱ew that it wasn’t Mahomes.
It was Paolo Banch꧙ero, basketball prodigy expected to become the👍 NBA No 1 draft pick.
“It’s not Patrick - that’s why he ignored me,” Brundle said in full earshot of B🌸anchero.
Brundle, totall𓆉y oblivious, asked✤: “What is your name?”
“Paolo Banchero.”
Brundle: “I thought I was talking to somebody else! So I’m sorry﷽ about that…”
And he muttered as he strolled off: “Whatever…”
Bro ain’t no way

The Sky Sports man grabbed a word with Venus and Serena Williams then, when tapping DJ Kha𓂃lid on the shoulder, 🍎received a full rap in return.
“I’m not going to add any words to that,” Brundle said🌜. “Beautifully su🎐mmed up, sir!”
He also met Pharrell Williams who said: I love Ferrari cars but Lewis ♕Hamilton is my brother.”
