The upcoming Miami Grand Prix is set to kick off with a revamped pre-race ceremony, signaling a shift towards a more music-focused introduction for drivers and fans.

Last year’s elaborate opening ceremony, featuring rapper LL Cool J and a special performance by will.i.am, faced mixed reviews from spectators and drivers alike.

This year’s ceremony will see drivers introduced via a giant LED screen above the start/finish gantry, adding a modern twist to the proceedings.

Six-time Grammy winner Marc Anthony is slated to perform the American national anthem, bringing a touch of star power to the event.

Joining Anthony will be DJ Kaskade, who will provide the beats and energy on the grid, creating an electrifying atmosphere for the racers and crowds.

The change in the ceremony format, although not directly driven by driver feedback, aligns with F1‘s ongoing efforts to enhance the pre-race build-up with music and entertainment.

Former Haas team boss Guenther Steiner, serving as the race’s ambassador, encourages drivers to embrace the evolving ways American races engage with fans, emphasizing the importance of entertaining fans beyond the racing itself.

Additional trackside acts throughout the weekend include renowned artists like Ed Sheeran, John Summit, Kaytranada, and Steve Aoki, promising a weekend filled with entertainment and excitement.
