Martin Brundle's grid walk interview with music star Camila Cabello moments before the Miami Grand Prix has got fans talking.

Brundle's grid walks at F1's three American races are almost now compulsory viewing, given the amount of celebrities that appear on the grid.

It's fair to say the Sky Sports commentator and former driver doesn't always have the best of luck when it comes to non-F1 interviewees - just look at last year's awkward chat with Machine Gun Kelly on the Brazilian Grand Prix grid.

Others, meanwhile, occasionally flat out refuse interviews with Brundle - leading some fans to question why they are on the F1 grid at all, given that there is a 'clause' that they are obliged to talk to the ex-McLaren driver.

On Sunday, Brundle bumped into singer-songwriter Cabello, who was born in Cuba before moving to Miami when she was six years old.

And the interview got off to a positive note, with Brundle asking the singer-songwriter whether he could call her 'Senorita' - and unlike some other interviews, simply rolled on from there.

When asked what she thought of F1, Cabello smiled before replying: "I am addicted. I need to come back - I love this.

"I like fast cars, they go with my music lately. I like the adrenaline.

"I love Lewis Hamilton. He drove me around the track this morning. My insides were upside down, and he goes 100 miles per hour faster than he drove me this morning, so I don't know how he does it."

There was a slightly awkward moment at the end when a car fired up as Brundle was asking another question, but Cabello said: "Can't hear a word you just said - but I'm sure it was lovely."

And fans all had the same reaction on social media.

One fan wrote: "It is so refreshing to see a pretty big celebrity being a nice down to Earth good person who is happy to talk on the grid."

A second agreed: "Camila has gained so much respect from me, she's been so cool this weekend."

A third added: "Between her and Ed Sheeran, they're showing celebs how to actually behave!"

A fourth wrote: "Camila Cabello passed the grid walk vibe check."

And a fifth said: "How any celeb attending an F1 race should treat Martin Brundle."

The race itself was won by McLaren's Lando Norris, who scooped up his maiden F1 race victory by beating Red Bull's Max Verstappen to the chequered flag.

Lewis Hamilton, meanwhile, finished sixth as his Mercedes car begins to show some early signs of improvement.
