As you'd expect, this moment achieved viral status. Ahead of the now-famous Miami race, the grid was swarming with celebrities from across the globe, on top of the usual team personnel readying their machinery for the race ahead. Boxing legend Evander Holyfield and current boxer Conor Benn were in attendance, both offering their time to the commentator and his cameraman. Brundle, famous for not only his former driving in the sport but also his iconic grid walk interviews, approached Sir Jackie, wearing his usual tartan suit. The two chatted about the upcoming race, with the three-time champion professing his love for the trophy for the winner of today's Grand Prix.

Previously, the racing driver secured an interview with Roger Federer for Brundle.

Martin Brundle once again recruiting Sir Jackie Stewart for grid walk help, this time to say hello to Lisa 🤝 — Sky Sports F1 (@SkySportsF1) May 4, 2025 Brundle, discussing the moment when Sir Jackie caught Federer, said the following: "What a legend, 83 years old! I happened across him at the front of that rope, it was sort of like trying to get into a dodgy nightclub, wasn't it?" he said. "The pair of us, we had no chance – we had the wrong dress code or something! "I found that whole procedure a little bit weird on the grid. But there were so many people around, and I particularly wanted to talk to Roger [Federer] as I got to the front there. I just happened to see Jackie and he was like, 'Do you want to talk to him?' and he said 'I'll get him, I'll get him!' "Then he jumps over the rope, and there were three people running after him. I'm like, 'Oh, my God, I've just gotten Jackie Stewart thrown out of this place', and we've both been thrown out of better places than that! "It was hilarious, really. Then I started to panic a little bit, if I'm honest! He's 83, I don't need him over there risking himself just for an interview. So he was great. That's a true mate, isn't it, when they go the extra mile for you like that?"

Princess Eugenie shares sweet tribute to her husband and 'hero' Jack Brooksbank for his birthday - alongside adorable snaps of their children
Princess Eugenie has shared a sweet tribute to her husband Jack Brooksbank as he celebrates his birthday. The younger daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, 35, married the marketing executive at St George's Chapel in Windsor in October 2018 - the same place as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle two months earlier. The couple have since welcomed two children, August, four, and Ernest, one. As Jack turned 39 on Saturday, Eugenie shared an adorable selection of memories from their five and a half years of marriage - and the 14 years in total they've been together. Referring to her husband as her 'hero' in a message alongside her Instagram post, Eugenie wished him a 'happy birthday'. Alongside photos that highlight a rare glimpse into their family life, she wrote: 'Gosh it's been 14 years and every birthday gets better as our family grows. 'Best Dada ever and the best memories with so many more to come.' To celebrate the milestone, the royal shared sweet pictures of family life, including going for a walk along the beach with her sons, and Jack and August walking together in the garden. In her final image, she shared a throwback image of them having dinner in the early days of dating In the remarkably candid post, Eugenie and Jack posed for selfies together, taken on their holidays and adventures. Also included in the carousel of pictures was a snap of Eugenie and Jack together at the F1 Grand Prix of Bahrain last month - where they were joined by her sister Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. It was a stark contrast to the final picture in the carousel - showing a much younger Jack and Eugenie having dinner together in the early days of their relationship. Last month, Eugenie and her older sister Beatrice turned heads as they stepped out for an event in London. The King 's nieces sported all black for the launch of MR PORTER Steakhouse, a new eatery situated on London's affluent Park Lane. Princess Beatrice, 36, stunned in a casual chic ensemble consisting of a black blazer, a black a line dress and a pair of flat black Mary Jane pointed pumps. The sisters have clearly spent a lot of quality time together recently, as they were also spotted attending the Royal Family's traditional Easter Sunday service in Windsor, as well as a visit to the Teenage Cancer Trust unit at London's University College Hospital. Eugenie married marketing executive Jack at St George's Chapel in Windsor in October 2018. The lavish wedding was the high society event of the year, with the couple inviting 850 royals, aristocrats, VIPs and friends. In March, Eugenie also marked her 35th birthday with a sweet snap of her and her two young sons. In the heartwarming photo posted on Instagram, the royal is seated at a picnic table with August and Ernest. The princess was smiling widely in the picture and looking straight at the camera. Her little boys were sat across the table with their backs turned to the photographer. Dressed in pale blue jeans and a black, pinstriped jacket with pockets on the front and epaulettes fastened to the shoulders, Princess Beatrice 's sister looked happy and at ease in the domestic setting. The toy diggers nearby and the plates of food set before August and Ernest suggest the three were enjoying an al fresco lunch in the grounds of their Old Windsor home when they were caught on camera, presumably by Eugenie's husband and the boys' father, Jack. While their eldest son, August, was dressed in pale jeans and a navy hoodie, the couple's youngest, Ernest, was wearing a blue tracksuit featuring Mickey Mouse. Although August's face was completely obscured, Ernest's profile is visible in the picture, leading royal fans to note his resemblance to his mother, an art director at the Hauser & Wirth gallery. One fan commented: 'Happy birthday. Enjoy your day. Your younger one looks like you even from the side. Love the little bench and table too.' Someone else agreed: 'Gosh your youngest looks so much like you even from the side'. A third fan acknowledged Eugenie's philanthropic work, writing: 'A very happy birthday to you, Princess Eugenie! Thank you for all that you do for the ocean'. The photograph, which amassed almost 26,000 likes at the time of writing, attracted a number of other comments, the vast majority of which were celebratory in tone.

F1 Bahrain Grand Prix 2025 Start Times And How To Watch Live
BAHRAIN, BAHRAIN - MARCH 02: Max Verstappen of the Netherlands driving the (1) Oracle Red Bull ... More Racing RB20 leads Charles Leclerc of Monaco driving the (16) Ferrari SF-24 and the rest of the field during the F1 Grand Prix of Bahrain at Bahrain International Circuit on March 02, 2024 in Bahrain, Bahrain. (Photo by) Formula 1 heads to the Middle East for the fourth round of the 2025 season, with the Bahrain Grand Prix in Sakhir taking place from April 11-13. Lando Norris of McLaren racked up 62 points from the opening three rounds which has him sitting at the top of the drivers' standings. But he has only got a slim one-point advantage over Red Bull's Max Verstappen and is 13 points ahead of his teammate Oscar Piastri. Verstappen tightened the gap after pulling off an impressive performance last weekend, having wrestled his flawed RB21 car around Suzuka to snag a magical pole position and convert it into his first win of the season and his fourth Japanese GP victory in a row. Meanwhile, Norris and Piastri wrapped up the race in second and third respectively, helping McLaren extend its lead in the constructors' championship to 111 points – 36 points clear of Mercedes and 50 points ahead of Red Bull. Heading into the second race of the first triple-header of the year this weekend, the Woking squad is all about reclaiming its early-season edge and making sure that Verstappen – or anyone else – doesn't get a leg up in their quest for a second consecutive constructors' championship and the first drivers' title since 2008. Round four of the season at Bahrain International Circuit kicks off with FP1 on Friday, April 11 at 2:30 p.m. local time, followed by FP2 later in the day at 6 p.m. On Saturday, April 12, drivers will climb into their cars for the final practice run (FP3) at 3:30 p.m. before they fight for grid positions in qualifying at 7 p.m. The 57-lap race will get underway at 6 p.m. on Sunday, April 13.
