Miami Grand Prix 2025: When And Where To Watch Sprint Race, Qualifying And Main Race In India

The racing fans are gearing up for all the high-speed thrills as the F1 action resumes this weekend with the arrival of the Miami Grand Prix. It is the first of three races to be held in the US this season. Following Oscar Piastri’s victories in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, he leads the F1 Drivers' Championship by ten points. He is followed by his McLaren colleague Lando Norris and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.

Norris is returning to a track where he earned his maiden Grand Prix win, a year ago. Following Piastri’s victory in Saudi Arabia, Norris lost the leadership of the Drivers' Championship. Red Bull displayed fierce competitiveness in Jeddah, and it will be interesting to see how they fare in Miami. While Mercedes is banking on George Russell and Kimi Antonelli to improve its performance, Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc won his first podium of the season in Saudi Arabia.

Mercedes' teenage rookie Kimi Antonelli claimed a stunning maiden pole position in Formula 1 for the Miami GP Sprint. In doing so, the Italian became the youngest-ever driver to claim a pole position for either of F1's qualifying formats, beating the previous record held by Sebastian Vettel since 2008 by more than two years.
