McLaren's Lando Norris scored a maiden victory at the 2024 Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix.
Red Bull Racing's Max Verstappen finished in second place some 7.6 seconds behind, after his day unraveled in the second half of the race. Third place went to Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, roughly 10 seconds behind the winner.
Verstappen would soon start pulling away from the pack, while Piastri, showing the first signs of McLaren’s strong pace, began to close in on Leclerc. On lap four, Piastri used DRS to power past Leclerc on the long run to Turn 17, and from there things started to settle. Norris immediately entered the pits and resumed the race in the lead spot, ahead of Verstappen in second and Leclerc in third and ahead of Piastri. The safety car left the track at the end of lap 32, and despite pressure from Verstappen, Norris controlled the restart well to comfortably hold the lead, which he did so to the end of the race. Verstappen remained in second and Leclerc in third in the final stages.
