Formula 1 shifts gears and hits the States this weekend for the first of three American stops on the calendar, landing in sunny Florida for Round 6 of the 2025 FIA Formula One World Championship — the Miami Grand Prix.
The action unfolds at the Miami International Autodrome, which snakes its way around the Hard Rock Stadium. It's a track that doesn’t pull any punches: tight corners, flat-out straights, and just enough unpredictable weather to keep engineers chewing their nails.
McLaren heads into Miami riding high on momentum. Oscar Piastri’s already snagged three wins this season, and the Aussie looks like he’s driving with rocket fuel in his veins. Lando Norris, meanwhile, has been knocking on the door with solid race pace, though cracking the qualifying nut will be key if he wants to stay in the hunt up front.
This track’s been kind to the papaya squad before — it’s where Norris bagged his first-ever F1 win last year, and the layout plays right into McLaren’s wheelhouse. Safe to say, both drivers will be champing at the bit to hit the tarmac.
Over in the Silver Arrows garage, Mercedes are still sharp over a single lap. George Russell’s been Mr. Reliable in qualifying, while rookie Kimi Antonelli is settling in like a seasoned pro — calm under pressure and showing he’s not just here to make up the numbers.
Will McLaren keep their foot on the gas, or will someone else throw a wrench in the works? Miami's calling, and the grid's ready to dance in the heat.
The 2025 Miami Grand Prix weekend is just around the corner, and for all the scheduling, TV and streaming details you'll need to follow the action, look no further than The Sporting News for a full guide.
