Welcome to GPblog's daily liveblog where you will be able to keep up to date with the most exciting news directly from the paddock in Miami in real time.

For a whole day speculation was rife regarding Max Verstappen's fatherhood. Now the Dutchman himself has revealed he and girlfriend Kelly Piquet are proud parents to a beautiful baby girl.

GPblog was the first to report yesterday that Verstappen had delayed his flight to the US to take part in the Miami Grand Prix. The reason? Kelly Piquet going into labour.

After Red Bull Racing's short statement confirming that was the case, it was only a matter of time before the birth of the 'mini Verstappen-Piquet' baby was announced.

The colour pattern for the baby shower, Piquet picking out baby girl's clothes in a department store, and a message written on a baby shower journal all indicated that Verstappen and Piquet would have a girl.

In the end the clues - inadvertently - given along the past few months were true. Piquet gave birth to a beautiful and healthy baby girl, whom the couple have named Lily.

Andrea Kimi Antonelli has become the youngest ever pole sitter in the history of F1, but after his pole he has also shown his highly ambitious character as he is eager to repeat today's success across the whole Miami Grand Prix weekend.

Speaking on F1TV, the young Italian, who had never driven on the Miami track before, spoke of his feelings after achieving pole."I'm feeling over the moon. You know, I did not expect it, but I was feeling good in the car. I was able to improve lap by lap and find that consistency. And that lap came all together and I'm super, super happy with that."

"Now we will enjoy this moment a little bit more but I want to focus on tomorrow because I really want to try and repeat myself," added the young and ambitious Italian.

In the end Max Verstappen could only be P4 as the flag dropped in the Sprint Qualifying. But starting from the second row, can the Dutchman compete for the top step in the Miami Sprint race?

Verstappen praised Red Bull's Jeddah-like approach to final run in qualifying, highlighting the way his RB21 managed to preserve the tyres to do a 1 push lap, 2 cool down laps, 1 final push lap run in SQ3.

However, the Austrian team's car's weaknesses prevented the Dutchman from achieving a better result."I think what we also did in Q3 was good the tyres holding on quite well, but unfortunately already from FP1 [I was] just struggling with a lot of understeer in the car and around here with all these low speed corners you just lose quite a bit of lap time."
