After winning the Miami Grand Prix, Oscar Piastri performed a little victory dance in parc ferme. Afterwards he explained what led up to this moment.
McLaren’s Oscar Piastri won the Miami Grand Prix in dominant fashion, and afterwards he performed a little dance for his team in parc ferme.
This was a “Griddy”, named after high school football player Allen “Griddy” Davis, and now used by Minnesota Vikings’ Justin Jefferson in the NFL, after touchdowns.
“It was an attempt at a Griddy, as you can tell, poorly executed,” Piastri explained afterwards.
“I met Justin Jefferson on Thursday, who has essentially made the Griddy world famous, and stupidly made a bet with him that if I won the race, then I would do one for him.

“After qualifying yesterday, I didn’t practice because I thought that was definitely not going to be needed. So yeah, that was my first attempt at a Griddy live on world TV.
“I stayed true to the bet, but that’s the one and only time you’ll be seeing me do that,” the Australian concluded.
The Minnesota Vikings responded on X and wrote: “Oscarrrrrr! Lets Gooooo!”
