F1 heads to the United States for the first time this season for the Miami Grand Prix - and the second sprint weekend of the 2025 season.

Oscar Piastri won his third race in four with his victory in Saudi Arabia last time out, which gave him the championship lead over McLaren teammate Lando Norris. Piastri has a nine-point lead heading into round six after Norris pipped him to the win in Saturday’s sprint race in Miami, with Lewis Hamilton third.

Max Verstappen finished second in Saudi but was unhappy with his five-second penalty after clashing with Piastri on lap one. Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc secured Ferrari’s first podium of the year, but his teammate Hamilton struggled again, finishing seventh.

The Ferrari struggled again in qualifying on Saturday, with Hamilton out in Q2 and unable to fight for pole.
