Former F1 driver Ralf Schumacher has claimed that he was ‘brutally’ manhandled by security at the Miami Grand Prix.
Large sections of the media were hoping to get interviews with team bosses after the race but the security opted to cordon off an area until they had all arrived.
This led to sections of the media being forcefully removed from certain areas and placed with the rest of those hoping to get a word.
Even 2009 world champion and Sky Sports TV pundit Jenson Button was caught up in the mayhem and Schumacher witnessed the Brit’s run-in with security.

Not acceptable
“What happened after the race was unpleasant,” Schumacher said in his Sky Deutschland column.
“The securities cordoned off an area with ropes until the top 3 team bosses could gather. That was okay. Jenson Button, for example, wanted to go through the area from the inside, but the securities held him back in an unpleasant way until someone from Formula 1 apologised. There was no overview at all.
“The security pushed me over so brutally, which hurt me a lot. We forget the scratches, but it just doesn’t work that way. I expect an apology. But it’s much more important that something like this doesn’t happen again.
“I said to the camera during the live broadcast that they were idiots. I stand by that too. We will be in touch with Formula 1 about this. This was Formula 1 for the first time in over 20 years.
“We were pushed aside in this canal like a steamroller – and with great brutality. That’s just not acceptable. We never stood in the way.

“The stewards deal disproportionately in the USA. They don’t know their way around and don’t know how the interaction in Formula 1 works.”

Reactions
Several social media users reacted to the videos and news of Brown’s alleged arrest.
“Antonio Brown is a straight-up BADASS at Adin Ross BrandRisk boxing event in Miami! Dude got jumped outside the warehouse, but AB held his ground like a champ. Punched, chains targeted, he still fired shots in the air to clear the chaos. True grit, no surrender!” one person wrote.
Another commented, “He may get a year and $1000 fine for firing the gun in the air, maybe more depending on any city ordinance.”
A third person wrote, “Hopefully nobody was hurt. Where was AB’s security?!”

Another user wrote, “And just like that, Miami unlocks a new achievement: ‘Grand Theft Adin.’ Antonio Brown goes to a boxing match, gets jumped, allegedly fires shots in the air, and walks away with the rarest sports crossover of 2025: NFL x GTA x YouTuber. Bro tried to dodge CTE, but now he’s speedrunning GTA side quests on livestream. Who’s got ‘Antonio Brown arrested at an influencer boxing event’ on their apocalypse bingo card? This timeline needs a patch.”
