Rafael Nadal had a reunion with some of his most notorious friends over the weekend. The Spanish tennis star traveled all the way to Biscayne Bay, Miami, to attend this year's E1 Miami GP, an electric powerboat race league with many celebrity team owners, among them, Nadal and his friends Marc Anthony and Will Smith.
Nadal was joined by Anthony and Smith, who were all attending the tournament in support of their own teams. Photographers captured the group having fun together, with their arms around each other as they had fun and cheered on their drivers.
For the occasion, Nadal wore an all white look, made up of pants and a polo shirt with his brand's logo on the right breast. He rounded out the look with a navy cap. Anthony wore a black t-shirt and jeans, while Smith wore an off-color outfit made up of pants, a black belt, a t-shirt, and a cream colored button up on top. He completed the look with some sunglasses and a cap.
The trio was joined by Marcelo Claure, the Bolivian-American businessman who's another owner of an E1 team.
Rafa's team delivered a great performance
Following this past weekend's win, Nadal's team, called "Team Rafa" gathered enough points through the 2025 season to land in the second position. It was a moment that was celebrated by Nadal, who surprised his pilots after their win in a video captured on social media.
The clip showed Tom Chiappe speaking to journalists, with Nadal appearing from behind to hug him and congratulate him. "They did an amazing job," said Nadal to journalists.
"They had been suffering the last couple of races, so I am super happy for all of them and for the amazing job that they're doing. This is just the beginning but it's an amazing start."
Following their match, Nadal recapped the end of the 2025 season with a sweet post, sharing photos alongside his team, including Chiappe and Cris Larrazaga, and a photo of himself holding on to the team's second-place tournament.
"A very exciting week in Miami with the final race of the year at @e1series!" he wrote. "Congratulations to the entire @e1teamrafa for the effort, commitment, and teamwork. Beyond the runner-up finish, I’ll keep the fighting spirit and all the moments we’ve shared together."
"We’ll come back stronger next year!"
Tom Brady's team, "Team Brady," was ultimately the winner of this season's competition.
