Breaking News: Travis Kelce With Donald Trump arrives at the Miami Grand Prix days after having his $250,000-a-ticket fundraiser shut down by race officials

Donald Trump has arrived at the Miami Grand Prix – days after having a $250,000-a-ticket fundraiser at the race shut down by officials.

The former president and Republican candidate was in Florida on Sunday and joined a star-studded crowd of celebrities as Formula One descended on the city once again.

He returned to his Florida HQ on Friday night after another week in New York at his Stormy Daniels hush money trial.

Trump, who also attended LIV Golf’s event in Miami last month, was pictured in McLaren’s garage and was deep in conversation with the team’s CEO Zak Brown.

A statement from McLaren read: ‘McLaren is a non-political organization however we recognize and respect the office of President of the United States so when the request was made to visit our garage on race day we accepted alongside the president of the FIA and the CEO’s of Liberty Media and Formula 1.

It comes days after he had a $250,000-a-ticket fundraiser at the race shut down by officials.

We were honored that McLaren Racing was chosen as the representative of F1 which gave us the opportunity to showcase the world class engineering that we bring to motorsport.’

Trump’s presence at the race comes after organizers halted his plans for a fundraiser because he violated the terms of his hospitality suite agreement by planning to raise money for a federal election.

His friend Steven Witkoff, who recently testified on Trump’s behalf in New York, purchased the suite in his name for the purposes of operating the fundraiser.

‘It has come to our attention that you may be using your Paddock Club Rooftop Suite for a political purpose, namely raising money for a federal election at $250,000 per ticket, which clearly violates the Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix suite license agreement,’ read a cease and desist letter.

‘If this is true, we regret to inform you that your suite license will be revoked, you will not be allowed to attend the race at any time, and we will refund you in full.’

Race officials declined to comment on the story publicly, while Witkoff told the New York Post ‘this is something fake, for sure,’ but declined to comment any further.

The fundraiser was reportedly set up by a Hollywood, Florida golf club which is owned by Witkoff’s real estate company.

Club members recently received an invitation to the fundraiser, and while it didn’t mention Trump by name, Post sources who inquired were told that the event was for the GOP candidate and would cost $250,000.

Trump wasn’t the only big name in attendance. Travis Kelce flew in from the Kentucky Derby while Chiefs teammate Patrick Mahomes and wife Brittany were also there.

A host of NBA players like Kevin Durant and Jimmy Butler were there, along with pop singer Camilla Cabello.

Trump tore into the prosecutors threatening to send him to jail on Saturday night, accusing the Democrats of running a ‘Gestapo administration’.

He also branded special counsel Jack Smith a ‘f**king a**hole’ as he addressed a $40,000 a head fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago.

Around 400 donors and lawmakers were at the lunch on Trump’s Florida estate to which he returned on Friday night after the first week of his hush money trial in New York.
