Miami Grand Prix 2026

The Miami Grand Prix is held at the Miami International Autodrome, a purpose-built street circuit in the grounds of Hard Rock Stadium. At 5.41km per lap across 57 laps, the circuit combines tight technical sections with two long straights that create genuine DRS overtaking opportunities at Turns 1 and 11. The layout rewards a low-drag setup to maximise straight-line speed, but teams must balance this against the need for mechanical grip through the slower, bumpy infield section. Tyre degradation is typically high in the Florida heat, making pit stop strategy critical — most races see a two-stop approach emerge as the optimal choice. The Miami sprint weekend format in 2026 means teams have less setup time, placing a premium on drivers who can adapt quickly. Mercedes, Ferrari and McLaren have all shown competitive pace in 2026, and this track historically favours cars with efficient aerodynamics and strong traction out of the slower corners. Verstappen won the inaugural Miami GP in 2022, and the event has become one of the calendar's showcase events with a strong American audience.
