Sir Jackie Stewart delivers perfect response after being manhandled by grand prix security

Sir Jackie Stewart is a legend of the Formula 1 game, but one over-eager security guard at the Miami Grand Prix didn't quite get the memo. The Scot, now 83, won three World Driving Championships during his storied career.

And the racing icon still attends major events including the weekend's showpiece event in Florida, but Sky Sports cameras caught the bizarre moment that one security guard tried to block Stewart, who was wearing his iconic tartan cap, from entering the VIP Zone, reports the Mirror.

The de facto bouncer at the Miami International Autodrome was quickly informed, however, by another member of staff that it was indeed the great Jackie Stewart in front of him. The legend was quickly let in to the zone for a chat with tennis icon Roger Federer.
