The Miami Grand Prix faced criticism from fans online for the excessively high prices of food. Lando Norris emerged as the winner of the race, which was surrounded by a glamorous and extravagant atmosphere. Numerous celebrities were in attendance at the Hard Rock Stadium. As expected, everything around the venue was expensive due to the American weekend. Some individuals highlighted the exorbitant prices of food items on the menu of the Miami Grand Prix. The Managing Director of the Miami Grand Prix, [Name], defended the inflated prices of the food items at the venue.
One attendee of the event took to [Social Media Platform] to share the price of Lobster Rolls, which was $280. However, this person did not provide much context or additional information about the prices mentioned. [Name] clarified the situation and explained that the prices mentioned were for a suite, not for general access. Furthermore, the portion size would likely be larger considering the prices mentioned.
The CEO of the Miami Dolphins, [Name], also stated that the price of $280 for Lobster Rolls was intended to serve more than just one person. The portions would be sufficient for up to ten people, hence the high price. However, it is true that Formula 1 tickets and other commodities associated with the sport are generally expensive and not affordable for everyone. Therefore, the sport may need to reconsider their pricing strategy for such items during a race if the tickets are already costly.
Although there were expensive items at the event, [Name] revealed that there were also affordable options available. Additionally, some items were priced higher due to being prepared by renowned chefs. For example, [Chef’s Name] was present, preparing Vodka Rigatoni, which naturally had a higher cost.
According to [Name], the event aimed to provide attendees with a wide range of options. However, people tended to focus on the negatives, such as the high prices, without considering the context. The Lobster Rolls priced at $280, which could feed almost twelve people, were justified in terms of their price.
American weekends are typically more expensive compared to other events due to the high demand. Additionally, these weekends bring significant financial benefits to Formula 1. Therefore, the sport should continue racing in America and maintain the availability of high-priced items as well.
