Dolphins’ Star Tyreek Hill Shows F1 Driver Pierre Gasly His Amazing Reflex
The huge F1 race has now relocated to America after 4 races. The Miami event is shaping up to be a star-studded occasion, as predicted. NFL star Tyreek Hill is the most recent to be added to the list.
Hill even talked on the team’s radio at one point. He went up to one of the Alpine engineers to ask if he could send a message, before the TV showed that Pierre Gasly was receiving it. “Good luck brother. Be fast like the cheetah, baby,” said Hill, before the French racer replied: “Copy champ, thanks.”
Tyreek Hill is known as @cheetah. He’s one of the fastest players in the NFL. Super agile. One would say great reflexes.
Pierre Gasly is a Formula 1 driver.
Watch the difference 👀

Although Hill did a reasonably good job of catching the tennis balls, Gasly’s pace was unmatched. The Dolphins star made sure to display his reflexes despite a few close calls.
Tyreek, who was also sporting Alpine clothing and merchandise for the day, was included in a handful of the team’s photos of the event.

This not only indicates a brighter, more expansive future, but also suggests closer links between the Dolphins and Formula 1. Along with Tyreek Hill, other athletes including Jaelen Philips and Tua Tagovailoa also spent time with the drivers on Thursday.
Very cool from Alpine – Tyreek Hill was in the garage and on the radio for Pierre Gasly during FP1. https://t.co/R1ORFlRGxi
