Verstappen, like a bird of prey dominating the skies, continues his domination this season. Starting from pole position, he challenged Leclerc relentlessly to take victory in the frantic Miami sprint.
Nightmare Start for Norris
The opening corner promised sparks, and Miami didn’t disappoint. In a tragic move, Lando Norris spun out, while Fernando Alonso suffered a puncture. But even in the chaos, Daniel Ricciardo managed to surprise Sergio Perez and take third place. The yellow flag was waved on the very first lap, a sign of an eventful start.
Second Flight
As the green flag waved, Sergio Perez wasted no time in regaining his position on the provisional podium. Meanwhile, Daniel Ricciardo could not breathe for a moment, closely harassed by Oscar Piastri and Carlos Sainz. The French team also had its share of misfortunes, with Ocon penalized even before the start of the sprint, while Pierre Gasly struggled to make his way into the points.
Mercedes Lags Behind Once Again
A black day for British drivers: Lewis Hamilton is under investigation for speeding in the pits and his involvement in the first-turn accident. Russell lost out on performance, with both cars struggling on the straights, Haas even overtaking Mercedes. Not an encouraging sign for Toto Wolff in his quest to recruit Verstappen or Sainz.
Verstappen in Total Control
Another sensational weekend of high-flying F1 sprinting in sunny Miami. Starting on pole, Max Verstappen, the indomitable Dutchman, once again confirmed his status as championship leader. Closely followed by Charles Leclerc, the Monegasque failed in his attempt to catch up, leaving the world champion to claim victory.
