BLACKPINK’s Rosé waves the checkered flag for the Miami Sprint Grand Prix 2025.

It's Miami Grand Prix weekend, and as always, celebrities are lining up. From Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady to Daddy Yankee, the Miami GP is one of the most fun weekends on the F1 schedule. But that's not all that was making headlines, as for the Sprint Grand Prix, Rosé from BLACKPINK waved the Checkered flag. The idol is dressed in an oversized black, white, and dark blue leather racer jacket and shorts.

But the funny coincidence is that for last year's Miami GP, fellow bandmate Lisa was the Grand Prix flag-bearer. The Money singer stated through an Instagram post,

“Honored to wave the flag at my first @f1.”

Along with pictures of the singer on the track and meeting the Oracle Red Bull Racing team.

According to F1’s website, the flag waving “marks the end of any practice session, qualifying session or race, and is waved until all competing cars have reached it.”

And two out of four BLACKPINK members now share that honor. This was also quite opportune for the APT singer, as it was recently announced that the singer has joined the official soundtrack for the upcoming F1 movie starring Brad Pitt. Joining the tracklist featuring singers such as Ed Sheeran, TATE, Roddy Ricch, and more, Rosé's song Messy is part of the 17-track album.

Fans react to Rosé waving the flag

Fans, Blinks, and motorsport alike have been gushing over the idol's presence on the tracks and her cute yet race-apt outfit.

One fan stated, "Rosé waving the flag like a true queen🏁👑

Eagle-eyed fans also made the connection that in last year's Miami GP, when Lisa waved the flag, Lando Norris marked his first win, which Lando fans believe could be a premonition for this Sunday's race.

One fan commented, "everytime a blackpink member has waved the chequered flag, lando norris ended up winning the race"
Another expressed, "I never knew I'd ever get Kpop X F1 crumbs 😭 My brother's a literal fan of the sport so I do know a thing or two about it, never did I think I'd ever see a Kpop artist let alone my favourite group's girlies on their waving the flag"
While a user faced a dilemma as a Blink and an F1 fan, "This is my worst nightmare, Im happy to see them but I don’t want HIM to cross in first"

Fans are currently looking forward to Rosé's much-awaited Hollywood musical debut.
