The 2025 Formula 1 season heads to North America for Round 6 of the championship — the highly anticipated Miami Grand Prix. Hosted at the Miami International Autodrome, the street circuit winds around Hard Rock Stadium and features 19 corners, three DRS zones, and top speeds pushing 350 km/h. It’s a layout made for drama.
🏆 Current Championship Standings (Before Miami)
- Oscar Piastri (McLaren) – 99 points
- Lando Norris (McLaren) – 89 points
- Max Verstappen (Red Bull) – 87 points
McLaren tops the Constructors’ Championship with 188 points, followed by Mercedes (111) and Red Bull Racing (89).
Piastri has stunned the paddock with wins in Bahrain, China, and Saudi Arabia. His calm precision and consistency have put him ahead of both seasoned veterans and his highly-rated teammate. He is the first Australian to lead the championship since Mark Webber in 2010.
Norris, though strong early in the season with a win in Melbourne, has seen inconsistent form — including a crash during Saudi qualifying and a dip in Bahrain. With Piastri outshining him and critics beginning to circle, Miami could be a crucial point in his season.
Meanwhile, Verstappen remains ever-dangerous. Though he hasn’t won since the season opener, his podium finishes keep him firmly in the title hunt. If McLaren falters, he’ll be ready to strike.
