Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler fawns over ‘great, young, attractive’ F1 driver while attending the Miami Grand Prix

MIAMI HEAT star Jimmy Butler has revealed his love for a certain F1 driver.

While present at the Miami Grand Prix, Butler fawned over McLaren driver Lando Norris in an interview.

Butler revealed he aspires to be like Norris and explained what he loves about the driver.

"That's who I aspire to be," Butler said.

"He's great, he's young, he's a little bit attractive, and so I think it's good to be him right now."

Norris and Butler have a history together, as they went on a hot lap around to the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve at the 2019 Canadian Grand Prix.

Butler had some hilarious reactions to the speed that they were travelling at, and recalled how he likes to go slow during his interview at the Miami GP.

"Like I tell everybody, I don't like to go fast," Butler said.

"I like to go slow. I drive big cars, not small, fast ones. That's probably why I don't get in these cars."

Butler is also way too big to fit in an F1 car. At 6-foot-7, Butler is almost a foot taller than 5-foot-8 Norris.

In fact, the tallest driver in F1 is only 6-foot-1, a number shared by Esteban Ocon and Alex Albon.

Fans loved the crossover between the NBA and F1 with Butler and Norris, and shared their reactions on social media.

"Lando's definitely a rising star in F1! It's great to see him getting recognition from top athletes like Jimmy Butler," one fan said.

"Hahaha Himmy showing love for Lando and McLaren," another fan said.

"That gentleman is never fitting in an F1 car, he’s very fit though!" a third fan said.

"THIS IS THE CUTEST THING I LOVE," a fourth fan said.
