Lando Norris secured his first Formula 1 victory at the Miami Grand Prix outpacing Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc. Norris capitalized on a well-timed pit stop during a safety car period demonstrating both skill and pace throughout the race. Verstappen attempt to challenge Norris was hindered by a damaged floor allowing the McLaren driver to maintain his lead.

Despite some drama, Norris held his position marking the first time Verstappen was beaten on track in a while. Further back, Carlos Sainz faced penalties for a collision reshuffling the top positions. Looking ahead, the next race is the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix at Imola where tributes to Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger are expected due to the anniversary of their deaths.
