Lando Norris opens up on meeting Travis Kelce after Miami Grand Prix victory… and reveals how he plans to get Taylor Swift tickets!

Lando Norris met Travis Kelce after his Grand Prix win in Miami, and the F1 driver gushed about the Chiefs star in a subsequent interview.

Kelce, a part-owner in Alpine’s F1 team, was in Florida to witness Norris’ first-ever win.

And the pair had a memorable meeting afterwards at Carbone Beach, as DailyMail.com exclusively reported at the time.

‘He was an awesome guy!,’ Norris told BBC Radio 1.

‘About double my height looking straight up, but he was a legend, he was very sweet. And we exchanged numbers and hopefully I can get to a game one day.’

Kelce is of course dating pop star Taylor Swift, and it was put to Norris during the Radio 1 interview that his new friendship could help him score tickets to one of her shows.

The English driver said he had to ‘warm up to it a bit’ before suggesting that he could use his sisters to get Swift tickets.

Kelce was in the crowd for Swift’s Paris show on Sunday night as the pop star performed for the 87th time during her Eras Tour.

And given that Kelce’s jersey number is 87 as well, Swift wore a Chiefs-themed ensemble to the stage as she donned a gold top and red skirt. Kelce was seen arriving at the Miami Grand Prix in exclusive photos from DailyMail.com, while his Chiefs teammate (and fellow Alpine investor) Patrick Mahomes was there as well.
