Noah Lyles recently made a visit to the Las Vegas Grand Prix along with his fiancée and Jamaican sprinter Junelle Bromfield. The couple also visited the Ferrari garage, where they had a chat with F1 drivers Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz Jr., who represent the Ferrari team.

In a video uploaded by video creator Andrew John Phillips, the Ferrari drivers Leclerc and Sainz Jr. can be seen shaking hands with Bromfield and Lyles.

Leclerc asked Lyles,

"When is your, your next race?"

Lyles responded,

"I got a year. You guys will be seeing me in 2025."

The official Instagram page of Ferrari uploaded a series of photographs from Lyles' visit, including a photo with Leclerc, with the caption,

"From the running track to the race track ⚡️ #LasVegasGP #F1"

Lyles also attended the finals, where Carlos Sainz Jr. and Charles Leclerc finished third and fourth, respectively. The Mercedes duo George Russell and seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton took the first and second places on the podium.

Noah Lyles edged out Kishane Thompson of Jamaica in the men's 100m race finals at the Paris Olympics 2024, ending the USA's gold medal drought in this category after two decades.

Despite being afflicted with COVID-19 a day before the finals, the American sprinter went on to win a second consecutive bronze medal in the men's 200m event at the Paris Olympics 2024. However, he had to pull out of the 4x100 men's relay event.

Noah Lyles talked about his grid experience at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Comparing the starting blocks to the track and field, Lyles mentioned,

"I was talking about that. I just said to my fiancée this is so weird, you never see it in track and field, somebody coming on here and staring at you while you get into your starting blocks."

Lyles also uploaded a collection of photographs from his visit to the Las Vegas GP on Instagram with the caption,

"Speed meets Speed"

Lyles is preparing for the upcoming athletic season of 2025 after having taken a break due to his health condition post the Paris Olympics 2024. The 27-year-old uploaded photographs from his practice session on Instagram, with the caption,

"2025 Season ⏳"

Before resuming his training for 2025, Noah Lyles got engaged to his longtime girlfriend Junelle Bromfield. He also ran a friendly 50m dash with popular YouTuber IShowSpeed, who almost beat him until he was edged out by Lyles in the final few meters.
