The likes of LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Tom Brady, David Beckham, the Williams sisters, and Wyclef are amongst notable celebrities who will be present amongst spectators to witness the thrilling race of the season.

Injury driven season has been major disappointment for LA Lakers after acquiring the services of Russel Westbrook to pair up with Lebron James.
Lakers fans have now raised their disappointment on social media platforms, stating that James should not enjoy his time off on the F1 circuit.
