What will the crowd be like? What will the track be like? The Miami Grand Prix debuts this weekend and there seems to be equal parts curiosity and excitement ahead of the event. It's been absolutely buzzing today and is already crawling with celebrities — many of whom might normally only be seen on race day. •3h ago If Russell had shown outward signs of being frustrated, it’d be understandable. Never once does his demeanor suggest someone whose team is mired in a slump, its worst in a decade, and dealing with an underperforming car that is of no fault of the driver. •3h ago •3h ago Although portions of the Florida Turnpike are partially open over the duration of the race weekend, an area overlooking the circuit is completely shut down throughout. That was a big one but I am ok. The Netflix effect on Formula One's growth has been widely discussed to the point where it's practically cliche now.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen won the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday, after passing the Ferrari of Formula 1 world championship rival Charles Leclerc.
Zhou Guanyu was the first retirement of the race when his Alfa Romeo broke down. Hamilton finished sixth, ahead of Bottas, Esteban Ocon, the penalised Alonso and Alex Albon’s Williams. With three laps to go, Verstappen escaped Leclerc’s DRS range and sealed his third win of the year. Perez also pitted for a new set of mediums, but none of the front trio stopped.

Ferrari took pole and a qualifying 1-2 on Saturday but had the lead taken off them within 10 laps by the charging Red Bull of Verstappen.
- 1. Ferrari were already talking about what safety car or sudden weather incidents they would need to stop him. - 3. - 2. - 1. Once he was clear of the Ferraris, only a late safety car caused by Lando Norris’ retirement brought Leclerc back into contention, producing the fastest lap of the race with seven circuits to go and staying within a few metres of Verstappen’s gearbox, but he could not quite find a way past.

Great start for the Red Bull driver. You can also stream Formula 1 races live in the U.S. with fuboTV, which offers a free trial. Rough for the Alfa Romeo driver. Still a 3-to-4 mph advantage for the Red Bull on the straights. 4:04 p.m.: Sergio Perez is adamant he's losing power on team radio, but his race engineer assures him there's no issue. Leclerc exits the pits in fourth. He looks OK. Pierre Gasly didn't see Norris, and made contact with him coming out of a turn. Schumacher sounds broken up on team radio. 5:04 p.m.: Mick Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel collide in Lap 56. 5:06 p.m.: Max Verstappen is in the driver's seat for the win at Miami, unless he hits a wall.

The reigning champion wielded the difficult-to-pass circuit to his advantage to take another bite out of Charles Leclerc's championship lead, winning the race ...
He punted his compatriot off the road and out of the race and dropped himself to 15th after a pit stop for repairs. Also I think Checo had a few issues in the race, so we have to be on top of that. Miami has a 10-year hosting contract, and judging by the scale of the event, you wouldn’t think money is in short supply. The drivers complained about the fiddly slow second sector, but it did force teams to try to strike a set-up compromise, just as the organisers intended. The timing of the stop was confusing given Ricciardo had been losing time to every driver behind him pretty much since Norris stopped. Verstappen has won every race he’s finished this season, and his performance this weekend, particularly defending against Leclerc late, was the kind of assured drive of a world champion. Max Verstappen executed flawlessly on race day to win with the fastest lap, particularly considering he lost so much practice time to an overheating gearbox and a hydraulics problem. He was able to switch off the affected part, but Christian Horner estimated it left him down around 20 kilowatts, muting his charge. Worse still is that Ferrari appears to have lost its small edge on tyre wear, particularly on the softer compounds. “It is going to be a long championship,” he added later. After a series of compounding updates from Red Bull Racing in previous rounds, Ferrari has slowly been losing the upper hand it had earlier in the year. It was an illuminating race despite the paucity of action.

Alonso – now holding a five-second penalty for contact with Gasly – led Schumacher and Ocon at the back of the top 10. "I think I’ll stick to racing," he said when asked by Willy T Ribbs if he was fit enough to step into the boxing ring, "but I appreciate a lot of boxing. Tsunoda was however promoted to 12th after the post-race penalties for Alonso and Ricciardo. That left Williams driver Latifi in P14. The podium saw the top three celebrate in front of Miami Dolphins legend Dan Marino – and his statue. Then, on Lap 41, Gasly – who had previously been tapped at the final corner by Alonso – went wide at Turn 8, rejoined, and clashed with Norris, ripping the McLaren’s rear-right tyre off and sending him into a spin. Leclerc prepared his rebuttal, tailing the Red Bull throughout the next lap – but the reigning champion was now in a commanding position. Leclerc was next to pit, a swap to hards taking 3.2 seconds, as he emerged in P4 on Lap 25. A sensor issue was to blame and Perez was back – but had lost considerable time (and some engine power to boot) to Sainz ahead. Perez attempted to pass Sainz on Lap 52 but locked up, both drivers avoiding contact, while Leclerc was under half a second behind Verstappen in the chase for the lead. On Lap 6, he took P6 off Gasly and the seven-time champion was back where he began. Hamilton lamented the fact that he couldn't pit during the VSC but was promoted to P6 when Valtteri Bottas went wide at Turn 17 on Lap 49. Perez took the opportunity to pit for new mediums from P4, emerging there, with hard-shod Verstappen, Leclerc and Sainz ahead.
