The Miami Grand Prix according to social media
Wild celebrations, successful predictions, and a lot of tears: The best social posts from Lando’s Miami GP victory
How on earth do we sum up the emotions of the last few days or even begin to tell the story of this incredible feat? Simply put, we cannot… So, instead, we’ll let you do it via your beautiful reactions on social media.
We couldn’t breathe during the final laps of the Miami Grand Prix, but your responses since Lando’s incredible win have completely taken our breath away. You are truly special, Papaya Army. Thank you so much for sticking with us.
This win has been many years in the making, from the hours upon hours of hard work and graft of the team to put together a race-winning car, to the time Lando, Oscar and our simulator team spend putting in the laps and pouring over the data, and the belief you instil within us with your unwavering support. This win is for every single one of you. Never change.
This is the Miami Grand Prix according to social media.
Our spider senses were tingling… Something special was coming.

A solid result from Oscar in the Sprint outlined our potential. Meanwhile Lando’s redemption arc was pending…
Fantastic work Oscar and team. Really unfair for Lando but race day is tomorrow, and he’ll come back from it 👊👊🧡

Who gave Lando and Oscar a race winning car?
Never forget this team at the MTC. Such huge efforts away from the track make all the difference.
Thank you to everyone at the MTC.#FansLikeNoOther #WhateverItTakes https://t.co/6T2992ZSVK

Amazing start! Great heads up move by the young man.

Not a dry eye in the house.
This race/memory will live in my head rent free forever. 🥹 this was a moment we’ve all been waiting for, for a very long time. The emotions were so amazing. Probably one of my favourite sports moments ever.

Now what? Now we do it all over again. This is just the start of the journey. We cannot wait to see what the future has in store for us. Next stop: Imola.
