Martin Brundle was forced to wait for an uncomfortably long period of time to chat to boxing superstar Anthony Joshua ahead of the United States Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

The legendary broadcaster was doing his trademark grid walk segment for\u00a0Sky Sports F1<\/em>\u00a0when he came across the boxing icon, who was having a chat with another individual.<\/p>\n

Brundle paused to wait for a chance to speak to Joshua, but unfortunately for the 64-year-old, the boxer was in no rush to end his conversation prematurely, leaving the Sky Sports presenter awkwardly standing by for over a minute.<\/p>\n

When Joshua did eventually get around to chatting to Brundle, he was keen to talk about his new investment in the Alpine F1 team after news broke that a host of celebrity athletes have pledged funds towards the French outfit.<\/p>\n

Speaking about his new project, Joshua told Brundle: “Sport is changing, we’re crossing over and I have a great team that I work with.<\/p>\n

“Obviously, F1 is massive but, hopefully, Alpine can have direct, committed supporters and fans like myself now, who will be here head-to-toe in Alpine gear.\u00a0What I’m here to do is raise awareness for the people who don’t know enough about Alpine.”<\/p>\n
