"...started calling girls Bojangles."

MIAMI, FL—As Formula 1 descends on Miami for another chaotic Grand Prix weekend, McLaren’s Lando Norris has received a critical boost to his preparations—from none other than Mr. Worldwide himself.

In a surprise appearance at the McLaren hospitality suite, Pitbull offered Norris some heartfelt, albeit extremely wise, advice. Sources say the interaction lasted less than five minutes but is already being described as "more motivational than any driver coaching session all year."

“First thing he said was just ‘Dalé,’” Norris recounted. “That was it. Then he kinda nodded, adjusted his sunglasses indoors, and started calling girls Bojangles.”

Pitbull, who has no formal experience in Formula 1 but does possess an impressive collection of white suits, reportedly offered to be Norris’s "race engineer" for the weekend. McLaren politely declined, citing "team protocols" and "not knowing what the hell he means. Dale?!"

“He kept saying, ‘Forget yesterday, live for today, and party tonight with Mr. Worldwide,’” said McLaren race strategist Joe Ramirez. “Which is solid advice I guess, slightly less solid when you’re trying to win a championship, I think.”

Fans spotted Norris later in the paddock looking noticeably more relaxed, casually tossing a can of Monster and repeating “Dalé” under his breath like a mantra.

When asked if the session helped, Norris was upbeat. “Yeah, actually. I was stressing about qualifying setup, tire temps, all that. Now I’m just vibing. Pitbull says the race is gonna be fire. And If I'm ever down to just think of a tremendo culo. That’s all I need to know.”

Pitbull, meanwhile, left the paddock in his signature style—waving to literally no one while whispering “Mr. 305."

As McLaren prepares for Sunday’s race, team principal Andrea Stella remains cautiously optimistic. “If Lando wins,” he said, “we’ll have to credit the strategy to Pitbull.”

Because sometimes, the difference between pole position and heartbreak is just one thing.

Dalé.
