MIAMI — A special invitation, a table, and a plate of pasta shared by people who are often apart. That’s all it took for Barilla to bring the spirit of togetherness to Miami during the opening day of the FORMULA 1® CRYPTO.COM MIAMI GRAND PRIX 2026.

Making the evening even more special was a lineup of distinguished guests, including VCARB’s future champion Arvid Lindblad, who attended alongside his mother in reflection of the event’s family-first spirit, Formula 1® World Champion Nico Rosberg with his wife and Olympic champion Mikaela Shiffrin with fiancé. Alongside them, guests included members of the wider Formula 1® ecosystem, from engineers and technical partners to broadcast crews and media, reflecting the many people who contribute to the sport throughout the season.

A chance for a reunion: something that isn’t a given when you’re traveling the world 24 weekends a year.

For one evening, that distance was bridged and at the heart of it all was pasta: Fusilloni and Racing Wheels, the new shape launched specifically for the race season in collaboration with Formula 1®, available on Walmart.com and rolling out across the United States later this year.

That feeling of togetherness, typical of the Italian family meals, will continue across the entire weekend, with families staying on to experience the race weekend, from Thursday’s dinner through to Sunday’s Grand Prix.

“Taking time to come together, even when schedules make it difficult, is at the heart of what we do,” said Melissa Tendick, President of Barilla Americas. “As we deepen our involvement with Formula 1®, including our new partnership with Visa Cash App Racing Bulls, we’re proud to create moments that bring people back to what matters most: connecting over a meal and feeling close to family and friends.” Arvid Lindblad, VCARB Driver said, “It was such a special evening getting to see everyone come together, where we all switched off and switched on our personal lives. Partnering with Barilla, a brand that shares our values and Italian roots, felt especially meaningful, highlighting the importance of connection and the people behind our success.”

And while engines keep racing in Miami, Barilla reminds us that family can be anywhere: at home, in the paddock, or around a shared table.
