Formula 1: Norris Wins Chaotic Miami Sprint As McLaren Secure 1-2 Spot
Miami Grand Prix: Lando Norris claimed a dramatic victory in the Sprint at the Miami Grand Prix, capitalising on a well-timed pit stop and late Safety Car intervention to lead home a McLaren 1-2 finish ahead of Oscar Piastri. The race was marked by unpredictable weather, early crashes, pit lane chaos, and a series of investigations that reshaped the final order.
Heavy rain before the Sprint created treacherous conditions at the Miami International Autodrome. Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc was the first casualty, crashing out on his way to the grid before the race even began. A red flag followed the formation lap due to poor visibility, forcing all 19 remaining cars back to the pit lane.
Once the Sprint resumed in better conditions, pole-sitter Kimi Antonelli struggled off the line, allowing Piastri to take the lead into Turn 1. Norris followed closely in second as Antonelli fell to fourth after a wide moment.
