F1 Full Results | Piastri wins Miami Grand Prix as Norris and Verstappen battle reignites

The Australian has become the first McLaren driver to win three races in a row since Mika Hakkinen.

The danger of thunderstorms loomed throughout the race in the Sunshine State. As the race got underway, there was immediate controversy. Max Verstappen and Lando Norris were close to making contact. The Brit dropped places after Max Verstappen ran out of room on the circuit during a slide. Elsewhere, Jack Doohan and Liam Lawson made contact, bringing out a lap one VSC.

Norris was quick to return to third from sixth after the Virtual Safety Car. Oscar Piastri then caught Max Verstappen with a blistering pace before an exciting battle commenced in the early stages. The four-time world champion defended the Australian valiantly before locking up and conceding first place. The battle gave Norris a chance to catch up to the Dutchman, and the pair fought for several laps before the Brit managed to overtake his rival.

Oliver Bearman stopped on the track at turn eight on lap 28. The Brit limped around the track before he eventually stopped, causing the second VSC of the race. Gabriel Bortoleto brought out the third of the race, pulling off on the back straight after a terminal issue.

The race never really ignited how the world might've expected beforehand, but fans were still given many memorable moments to think about.

After 18-year-old Kimi Antonelli secured his maiden pole position in sprint qualifying, Lando Norris went on to win the chaotic sprint race on Saturday. The rain poured down as Charles Leclerc crashed before the short race even began. Behind Norris was teammate Piastri and a charging Lewis Hamilton, who took advantage of being one of the first challengers to move onto slick tyres.
