Emilia Clarke fulfils fan request

The seven-time world champion took a record-breaking ninth win at the British Grand Prix, a star studded event attracting a whole host of celebrities.

One of which was actress and former Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, who played Daenerys Targaryen, pictured in the Ferrari and McLaren garages.

Clarke’s character is a rival to the Iron Throne, accompanied throughout the series with her three dragons.

McLaren posted a video to social media of the actress walking through the garage alongside the MCL38 in character as Daenerys.

One fan commented on X: “Shame she didn’t say “Dracarys” at the end, followed by the car firing into life.”

However, the team responded to the request, sharing a video of Clarke commanding the car, delivering the “Dracarys” line- a phrase that prompts her character’s dragons to breathe fire in the popular TV show.

The camera then pans to the McLaren firing up, ready to leave the garage at Silverstone.
