Rob McElhenney & Wife Kaitlin Olson Spotted At Formula 1 Grand Prix In Las Vegas

Rob McElhenney and his wife Kaitlin Olson were spotted walking on the paddock before the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas race at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit. 

The couple attended the race on Sunday and posted several pictures on Instagram.

McElhenney is an investor in the Alpine F1 team with Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Reynolds.

He shared a few shots of him at the event, including one with the French Alpine F1 drivers Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon and one with him and his wife smiling side by side. He added the caption, “What a weekend! Thank you @f1 for an experience I’ll never forget. See you again really soon! @alpinef1team.” 

Olson also posted a couple of pictures that showed her chatting with Gasly, Ocon and McElhenney. She additionally included a video of one of the drivers making a pit stop to get his wheels changed.

She added the comment, “What a wild weekend. Thank you for having us, @f1! And thank you for letting me drive, @alpinef1team !!**that last part didn’t happen.”

The Belgian-Dutch driver Max Verstappen, who competes for Red Bull Racing, won the race with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc behind him by 2.07 seconds.

Other celebrities were in attendance as well. Brad Pitt, Justin Bieber, Rihanna, Patrick Dempsey, Heidi Klum and other A-listers were all spotted. 

Bieber shared a photo of him waving the flag at the race on his Instagram story while Klum posted a mirror selfie of her and her husband, Tom Kaulitz, in a revealing black outfit. 

F1 is not the only sport that McElhenney and Olson are interested in.

They recently spoke about how they are very big soccer fans, as McElhenney owns Wrexham A.F.C. with Reynolds. They have also starred in the docuseries Welcome To Wrexham, which shows the journey McElhenney and Reynolds have been going through trying to make their team successful. 

In 2021, McElhenney and Charlotte Nicdao discussed the shockingly sexy scenes in their show Mythic Quest with uInterview.

“The idea came from a book that I read,” said McElhenney, who co-created the show with Megan Ganz and Charlie Day, told uInterview Founder Erik Meers. McElhenney also stars in the show as the creator of the fictional video game Mythic Quest, Ian Grimm, who often butts heads with his team, especially lead engineer Poppy Li, played by Nicdao.

He explained that the book was “about a very popular television program, where the executive producer of that is a very powerful person and what they were finding was that a lot of the members of the cast, both male and female, were having romantic dreams about this person. And they realized that none of them were attracted to this person in any way, shape or form, but what they realized was that it was somehow wrapped up in this very strange power dynamic and relationship with their parents and whatever, wherever these bizarre dreams come from, and so I pitched it to Meg.”
