F1 fans have been left stunned after seeing food and drink prices at one part of the Miami Grand Prix circuit.

F1's first visit to the USA for the 2024 season is taking place this weekend, with Red Bull's Max Verstappen securing pole position for the sprint race on Saturday evening.

Qualifying for the race proper takes place later in the day, with the showpiece event happening on Sunday.

The Miami International Autodrome is one of the most picturesque circuits on the calendar, as it is located around the iconic Hard Rock Stadium and even features a fake marina.

As a result, it attracts some of the biggest celebrities from both within racing and outside of it, with the star guest list this weekend including Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, Patrick Mahomes and Kendall Jenner.

It won't surprise you to hear that ticket prices are fairly high, although Campus Pass tickets came in at a start price of $150 per day - $440 less than last year.

However, if you want to sit in the Paddock Club, tickets could cost as much as $10,000, according to F1 Destinations.

Now, several images of a menu from the Miami Grand Prix circuit have gone viral on Twitter - and fans can't believe some of the prices.

The menu is split into two sections - chilled and warmed food.

The chilled food starts off with the Maine lobster roll, which comes in at *only* $290.

A 'fruit refresher' costs $190, while adding caviar to any dish will cost a further $400.

Warmed food prices are slightly closer to reasonable, with an empanada duo coming it at $120. A crispy wing board, meanwhile, featuring five different types of wings, will set you back $190.

There is a caveat to these prices, however, with this being the pricing system for the prestigious Hard Rock Beach Club - one of the VIP sections of the circuit.

That means if you go elsewhere at the track, food can be bought at a significantly cheaper cost.

But F1 fans were still left shocked about the prospect of paying over three figures for food - no matter where it is being served.

That's without even mentioning the drinks prices - with one bottle of champagne coming in at a staggering $3,600.

One said: "There's just no way."

A second wrote: "That is utterly insane."

And a third added: "I'm more of an 'add $3.50 for chicken' than a 'add $400 for caviar' type of guy."
