The Australian Oscar Piastri (McLaren) won the Miami Grand Prix at the circuit designed around the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida. In a standout performance, Piastri led a "one-two" for his team alongside his teammate Lando Norris, who finished in second place.
After securing his third consecutive victory, 24-year-old Piastri solidified his title bid in Formula One. This victory in Miami allows him to lead the championship with 131 points, maintaining an advantage over Norris and Max Verstappen.
On the track, Piastri faced intense competition, with Verstappen starting from "pole" position. However, the Australian showed impeccable management of his lead and tires, crossing the finish line in first place, thus consolidating his position in the championship fight.
The race was marked by several exciting moments, including key overtakes and team strategies. Alonso, for example, was hampered by his team's incorrect strategy, while Hamilton had to recover from twelfth on the grid.
In addition to Piastri's standout performance, other drivers such as George Russell (Mercedes), Verstappen, and Norris also had solid performances in the Miami race. This result reinforces McLaren's position in the constructors' championship, where they lead with 246 points.
The next round of the Formula One World Championship will be in Imola, Italy, in two weeks. McLaren will arrive at this race strengthened by their success in Miami, with Piastri leading the drivers' standings, promising an exciting continuation of the season.
