Sky F1 broadcaster Brundle has turned his strolls𝐆 up and down the starting grid, which iℱnclude informative discussions with F1 personnel as well as entertaining segments with A-list guests, into a much-loved tradition.

But an incident two years, involving rapper Megan Thee Stallion at the United States Grand Prix, prom♓pted an official F1 rule change.

Brundle was held back from interviewing Megan Thee Stallion by her security team💖.

So what rule was introduced?

Bodyguards fo🅺r celebrities on the F1 starting 𒀰grid are now banned.

“Officials believe the grid is a secure enough environment to mean they are not required,” reported in 2🎃021.

at the time: "Celebrities aren’t obliged to do interviews whilst on the grid, but security entourages are now no longer allowed to accompany them on there."

Brundle was quoted by at the time: "There have been new rules introduced, that any celebrities o🍬n the grid must not have bodyguards any longer.

"It must be the 'Brundle cla🐼use', and they're obliged to talk to me. I sort of like it if they ignore me, to be honest.

"I like to call out some of t🔜he celebs that I think are just using the grid a little bit if I'm honest. They don't really have ꩵa passion.

"I𝓡 know there are millions of fans at home going 'I should be on that grid. I'm a massive Formula 1 fan, no💙t them'.

The Cara Delevingne controversy

At Silverstone, model and actress Cara Delevi🍷ng꧅ne did not want to be interviewed by Brundle.

She later insisted that an 🧜Alfa Romeo staff member, not her agent, told Brundle that she didn’t want to speak on camera.

“But everybody has to talk on the grid,” Brundle said to her. “That's the deal now, everybody talks on th💮e grid."

As he gave up, he said: “I'm sure that ꦕwould have been extremely interesting."

Karun Chandhok, Brundle’s colleague, tweeted: “Honestly think we should h༒ave a “chart of rudeness” in F1! Next time, take the grid passes from people who don’t care and give it to some deserving kids who will treasure the experience…”

Delevingne later tweeted “I was told to say no so I did” while replying to a tweet which said: “Martin Brundle is just doing it to manufacture the moment for t꧋he controversy of it all.”

Alfa Romeo, who had invited Delevingne to the grand prix as their guest, later tweeted: “Respect goes both wayღs: nobody should be placed in an uncomfortable situation or forced to♐ do things against their will.”
