The pair found a football in the depths of the Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday.

With a bench between them, they enjoyed a few rallies of football tennis in front of the cameras.

Leclerc, 24, was in his iconic red Ferrari racing suit, with the top half wrapped around his waist.

He joined sporting heroes Michael Jordan, Tom Brady and Serena and Venus Williams in the VIP paddock guest list.
