Prince Harry Is All Smiles as He Attends the F1 Grand Prix in Austin
Prince Harry is in Texas, y'all!
The Duke of Sussex jetted to Austin for the F1 Grand Prix, where he was a guest of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team (a.k.a. Team Mercedes). He was spotted at the Circuit of the Americas touring the garage, chatting with the team executives, and in the paddock. Prince Harry attended solo, sans Meghan Markle. Last week, the Sussexes were spotted vacationing on the small Caribbean island of Canouan, and earlier this month, they were in New York City for Archewell Foundation's first in-person summit.
It's not the Duke of Sussex's first time associated with F1. In fact, he's a longtime fan of the sport; in 1994, he attended the British Grand Prix with his mom, Princess Diana, and in 2014, he was at the F1 Grand Prix of Abu Dhabi. In one of his last engagements as a working royal, he joined British driver Lewis Hamilton to officially open a museum at the Silverstone motor racing circuit.
This F1 racing season has seen many royal attendees at races, including Princess Charlene at the Monaco Grand Prix in May and Queen Máxima and the Dutch royals at the Dutch Grand Prix F1 race in August. Now, Prince Harry joins the long list of VIP attendees. Here, see all the best photos of Prince Harry at the F1 Grand Prix in Austin today:
