Sky Sports Formula 1 reporter Martin Brundle didn’t get Paolo Banchero and Patrick Mahomes confused at this year’s Miami Grand Prix.
Banchero, who the Magic selected with the No. 1 overall pick following his encounter with Brundle last May, said that it’s “been a hell of a year” as he transitioned to the NBA following his lone season with the Blue Devils.
Brundle then asked about the atmosphere at the Miami Grand Prix compared to a basketball environment, and Banchero responded that there’s “just a rush being here.” Brundle even shouted, “Patrick,” as he tried to track him down, thinking that Banchero — or, from Brundle’s perspective, Mahomes — couldn’t hear him due to the noise around the track.
The pair then discussed how the racers were “locked in” before it began, with Banchero remarking how it “reminds me of myself.”Getty Images
