Star Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill made his presence felt during the Miami Grand Prix weekend by disguising himself as an Alpine team member. The 29-year-old, who was supporting Pierre Gasly for the race, also impressed his fans then by attempting a difficult reflex drill that the Frenchman is a master at.
As seen in the video, Hill was made to catch three tennis balls without warning. The NFL star performed really well in the activity as he caught the balls each time, albeit with some difficulty.
After Hill finished performing the reaction test, Gasly followed suit. Looking at Gasly, it was clear that F1 drivers such as him are on another planet when it comes to reaction timings. The 27-year-old not only caught the balls each time but he did so with ease.
Fans express their surprise after seeing the difference in Gasly and Hill’s timing
Several fans such as Thomas commended the outstanding reflexes that F1 drivers such as Pierre Gasly have that they are also able to make some of the top NFL stars like Tyreek Hill look ‘slow’.
F1 drivers have inhuman reflexes. Gasly just made Tyreek Hill look… slow. 🤯 https://t.co/BkL1rKL9IP

On similar lines, another fan called Sac explained how the level of focus and concentration that an F1 driver requires is simply on a ‘whole other level’.

Meanwhile, there were several other fans such as Jack who also pointed out the frequency at which both athletes are likely to perform this activity. They believe that while Gasly was undoubtedly ‘impressive,’ they believe that Hill is unlikely to perform this activity as frequently as the Alpine driver does.
Pierre is impressive — definitely.
But also, Im thinking about how many times Pierre has done this drill, and how few Tyreek has.
Probably more of an indicator of the power of repetition than a true comparison of reaction time.

Pierre Gasly has a poor start to the 2023 season
Pierre Gasly seems to have had a subpar start to the 2023 season as he currently finds himself tenth in the championship with eight points. He is currently two points behind ninth-placed Lando Norris and already 19 points behind eighth-placed Lance Stroll.
Despite Gasly and Alpine’s poor start to the new campaign, the last race in Miami provided some sort of optimism for the team. The Frenchman qualified an outstanding fifth on the grid before finishing the race in ninth, his best finish this season.
