MUST-SEE: will.i.am gets race day at the Miami Grand Prix off to a stunning start with an orchestral version of ‘THE FORMULA’

Iconic recording artist will.i.am helped get race day at the 2023 Miami Grand Prix off to a spectacular start, as he conducted an orchestral version of his brand-new track THE FORMULA – as fellow music grandee LL Cool J introduced each and every one of the 20 F1 drivers onto the grid at the Miami International Autodrome.

Earlier this week, will.i.am announced that he would be releasing F1-inspired tracks as part of a Global Artist in Residence programme, which will culminate in a highly-anticipated solo album slated for the fall of 2023.
