Michael Jordan was recently spotted in a yellow Ferrari Pista. YouTubers Pedro Malagon and Casey Mecca capture the reclusive Bulls superstar in his hot wheels.

There is no doubt that Michael Jordan is one of the most popular sports personalities in the world. It’s been almost two decades since the 6x NBA champion retired from the sport of basketball. However, the storylines and narratives surrounding him continue to entertain his fans.

Despite keeping a low profile, the media and fans never seize an opportunity to follow the legend wherever he goes. Whether it’s his private vacation as well. The most recent example being his Airness and his wife in Croatia.

Recently, MJ was spotted in a yellow Ferrari Pista by popular YouTubers Pedro Malagon and Casey Mecca. Malagon is the creator of Balta Supra Racing.

Malagon couldn’t contain his excitement about seeing the basketball legend in person, especially since he was driving a supercar.

That’s awesome, guys, that’s awesome, Malagon said. I don’t really follow a lot of celebrities, watch a lot of movies, or care for that type of stuff much, but, man, an athlete… Even athletes I don’t care about much, but Michael Jordan is a total legend. Huge respect. That’s a big ‘wow’ moment for me.

The flamboyant Jordan would then wave at them and zoom past, holding his iconic cigar in one hand.
