After a week-long break, the roar of the engines returns for the Miami weekend. The first of three American rounds is also the second Sprint weekend of the year, which means teams will have only one free practice session to find the right direction. Who will make the most of it? Follow our live coverage from 18:30.
The circus returns to the Florida circuit one year after Lando Norris’s first Formula 1 victory. While that win was helped by a favorable Safety Car, much has changed in the months since.
Today, McLaren heads into Miami as the team to beat, leading both the constructors’ and drivers’ standings with Oscar Piastri. But the teams will have just a single free practice session to get everything in place before diving into the second Sprint weekend of the season.
Could this be a redemption opportunity for Ferrari? Leclerc performed very well on this track last year, securing two front rows and two podiums despite practically missing the free practice session due to a crash. Hamilton, meanwhile, remains more of a question mark, arriving in Miami eager to rediscover the pace lost in recent races.
