Miami witnessed another thrilling Formula One showdown as Oscar Piastri dominated the 2025 Miami Grand Prix, securing his third consecutive victory and extending his championship lead over teammate Lando Norris.
In an impressive display, McLaren clinched a one-two finish, with Norris coming second and George Russell securing third for Mercedes.
The race was packed with early drama as Norris attempted to take the lead, clashing with Max Verstappen, who ultimately finished fourth. The Miami pole position curse continued, with Verstappen failing to convert his P1 start into a victory—a trend dating back to the race’s inception in 2022.
Alex Albon claimed a stellar fifth-place finish for Williams, followed by Mercedes rookie Kimi Antonelli in sixth. The race saw multiple virtual safety car deployments due to retirements, adding strategic complexities to the competition. Meanwhile, the fierce battle between Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc on team radio captured attention as Ferrari struggled with internal conflicts over race pace management.
With McLaren proving their strength early in the season, Piastri now holds a 16-point advantage in the championship. As the next race looms, the battle for supremacy intensifies, setting the stage for more exhilarating moments in the season ahead.
