For the sixth round of the 2025 world championship, Formula 1 returns to Florida for the Miami Grand Prix. Lights go out at the Miami International Autodrome on Sunday, 4 May, and here’s how you can make sure you don’t miss a minute of the action.

Make sure to join us for Race Center Live, our live coverage of the race, complete with pre- and post-show coverage starting a half hour before lights go out for the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday, available in both English and Spanish.

The race will be the first of three grands prix in the U.S. this year, ahead of events in Austin and Las Vegas later in the season. And it comes at an exciting time for F1, as there’s a new leader atop the standings after McLaren’s Oscar Piastri picked up back-to-back wins in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Wins from Max Verstappen and Lando Norris also mean that the competition at the sharp end of F1 is hotting up.

So, if you want to keep up to date with all the action from the buildup to the race to lights out in Florida on Sunday, here’s everything you need to know about the 2025 Miami Grand Prix.

Where is the 2025 Miami Grand Prix?

Formula 1 will race for a fourth time on the Miami International Autodrome this weekend. The track is a temporary circuit set out in the grounds of the Hard Rock Stadium in the Miami Gardens region of the Florida city.

In total, the track comprises 19 turns over its 3.36-mile layout, which runs in a counter-clockwise direction. The race features 57 laps of the track, which will each take in three DRS zones and could see drivers hit speeds of up to 199 mph.

When it comes to where the action can occur in Miami, the sequence of corners around Turn 16 and Turn 17 proved to be a prime overtaking spot in years past, as did the left-hander at Turn 11. However, there were just 41 overtakes during last year’s race, meaning there were fewer passes than there were laps around the Miami International Autodrome.

How can I watch the 2025 Miami Grand Prix?

There are a few ways you can stay abreast of all the action in Miami from the comfort of your own home. In the United States, viewers can watch Sunday’s race live on ABC. If you want to catch practice, the sprint and both qualifying sessions qualifying, then these will be shown across ESPN.

Alternatively, an F1 TV subscription gives you access to coverage of every session in Miami, as well as driver cams and a choice of commentary.

In the United Kingdom, coverage of the weekend will be available live on SkyF1 and NowTV, while extended highlights will be free-to-air on Channel Four from 01:30am on Monday morning.

Fast facts about the Miami Grand Prix

We’ve already dug into the circuit that F1 will race on this weekend, but there are a few other stats that are good to know heading into this weekend’s race. 

Miami Grand Prix lap record:

‘It’s a ballet’: Inside the intricate choreography of a NASCAR Cup Series pit stop in the Next Gen era

Still, lost in the midst of a green flag run or buried amid a busy pit road during a caution flag, the individual movements and execution displayed by each crew member for each team can be lost. 

So, we gathered a Hendrick Motorsports crewman from each of the five positions and representing all four teams to walk us through their thought processes and movements, step-by-step, from inside their helmets. 

Spoiler alert: The amount of time it took them to explain far exceeded the amount of time of the stops themselves.  

Without further ado: 

RELATED: Know your Hendrick Motorsports pit crew – the No. 5 team

TJ Semke, jackman, No. 9 team

“First and foremost, practicing as much as we do throughout the week, really hoping to get the muscle memory down to where I’m not out there thinking, I’m just reacting. Before I jump off the wall, I like to know I had a great week of prep and I’m feeling confident jumping out onto pit road. The worst thing that hurts a lot of teams is when one guy is lacking confidence going over the wall. If you don’t have confidence, you’re already in a bad position.

“As I go out to the right side of the car I’m trying to get the car up as fast as I can, well under a second – about six tenths – that’s my goal from when the car stops to when the car is off the ground. Then, I want to help the tire changers get started sooner to pull the tires off faster. Then I’m trying to get to the right-front tire as fast as I can to get on the right-front hub and drop the jack. One thing with this top, there’s not a lot of time for a jackman. There’s no pauses. With the five lug, we had time before each movement. This is just a faster stop and so much more fluid. I don’t want to be the guy anyone is waiting on.

“Dropping the car fast on the right side is always an important piece for me. I need to do it fast and accurately as soon as the guys are done putting the lug on then dropping the car and bolting to the left side as fast as possible to get the car up again so they’re not waiting for me to pull the tires off.

“As a jackman, we’re kind of managing the entire stop and kind of can make or break you. Ultimately, you’re the one that’s going to be the hero for dropping the car on time or the zero looking at a two-week suspension if a tire isn’t secured. It can’t be understated how difficult that is and how much pressure that is but it helps being alongside solid teammates and knowing what they’re doing and trusting in them.” 

John Gianninoto, fueler, No. 9 team

“Our jackman, TJ, does a great job marking the box and making sure we have the sign where we need it depending on if there’s a car in front of us or behind us, whether we’re going to stop short or long, all that stuff. From there, it’s just communication with each other. We have a lot of hand gestures because it’s so loud at the track. Especially as a fueler, me and the rear changer, we have to communicate really well because he has to know what I’m doing fuel wise and that changes what his job is going to be. Am I going to be out of the way? Is he going to have to go underneath me? Is he going to have to check up? All that kind of stuff.

“The first thing we have to do is make sure our communication is checked off so we know what the stop is and from there, it’s a ballet we try to put together just making sure it’s cohesive and it runs well.”

PIT CREW CHALLENGE? For Hendrick Motorsports crewmen, every tenth is a test

Mike Moss, rear-tire changer, No. 5 team

“It starts with the crew chief; he’s giving the call that the car is 10 stalls away. From there, I take a deep breath, and you just feel light. As the car enters the next box, that’s when we can jump off the wall. I jump off the wall and I like touching the left side of the car, just feeling the speed of it and I try to get to the right side of the car within three seconds. I engage the lug nut and push the tire off. As I’m setting the tire, my tire carrier, Allen Stallings, is indexing the tire. 

“And then my most important job is to make sure the lug nut is on there completely. As I see that – I have stripes on my gun that’s an indicator of how tight the nut is – I get up, approach the left side, do my runaround, engage the left-side lug nut and do the same thing over there but now the jackman is indexing the tire. Then, I just make sure the tire is tight.”

Donnie Tasser, front-tire changer, No. 48 team

“It starts with your mindset. Breath-work I think is important, or however guys get into the zone so to speak. So, when the car gets one spot away, I take a slow, deep breath and that’s my trigger.” 

The car is coming in. As the front-tire changer, the jackman and tire carrier are coming off the wall in front of me. I’m finding my own line of sight. I’m trying to get that right-front lug engagement as quick as possible so, as the car is coming up, I can be pulling the tire and sending it to the wall. Then zip it back up and get out of the way so that my jackman can haul around the car, enter the left front and do it again. As soon as we finish the left front, I’m looking at the jack because in some situations, I end up dropping that. Making sure that when the left-rear is done if (jackman Allen Holman) is not back at the jack yet, I’m moving toward it so we can save any amount of time that we can.”

Ryan Patton, tire carrier, No. 24 team

“So, for me as the tire carrier, and this has been instilled in me for years, I’m kind of like the voice of the team. I don’t want to say, ‘captain’, but that might be the best terminology. So, the car is on the track running and (driver) William (Byron) is giving feedback and relaying that to (crew chief) Rudy (Fugle. Rudy gets a plan of how we’re going to make this car run a little bit better – could be an adjustment, could be no adjustment – and then Tyler Jones, our car chief, relays that to me. We all hear it on the radio but I specifically go to every member of the team and tell them, ‘This is what we’re doing.’

“We hear the cue and (jackman) Spencer (Bishop) picks up the jack, I pick up the tires and we get ready to roll. Once the car approaches, we leave and kind of form a flying ‘V’ in front of the race car with Spencer and myself being the peak. I pick up my visuals out of the race car and out of my peripherals kind of get a feel of where Spencer is at, where (front-tire changer) Jeff (Cordero) is at so that way, when I drop off the right front, that’s not impeding their performance. Then go to the right rear, make sure I get a good hang for (rear-tire changer) Orane (Ossowski) so he can have a quick change.

RELATED: Check out William Byron’s paint scheme for the Coca-Cola 600!

“If we make an adjustment, make sure we get that taken care of and then just haul to the left front. So, we kind of retrace our steps back around the front of the race car and then put the left-front tire on. So, once the right side is done, I don’t want to say you can take a breath, but you can kind of feel the pace of the stop. Like, ‘Hey, we’ve got a good one going here. If we can just be clean on the left side, we should have a good one.’ And then, once the car drops, you kind of have a feel like, ‘Hey, that was pretty good.’”

NASCAR hammers Prosper’s Chris Buescher and his team for illegal modifications at Kansas

CONCORD, N.C. — NASCAR penalized driver Chris Buescher and his Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing team for illegal modifications to the bumper of his No. 17 Ford at Kansas Speedway.

CONCORD, N.C. — NASCAR penalized driver Chris Buescher and his Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing team for illegal modifications to the bumper of his No. 17 Ford at Kansas Speedway.

The sanctioning body docked the team 60 driver points, 60 owner points, five driver playoff points and five owner playoff points for the level one violation. It also fined the team $75,000 and suspended crew chief Scott Graves from the next two races: the All-Star Race and the Coca-Cola 600.

The hefty penalties came three days after Buescher, from Prosper, finished eighth at Kansas and dropped him from 12th in the Cup Series point standings to 24th, well out of playoff contention.

The violations were discovered when the car was inspected at the NASCAR R&D Center after the race.

Motorsport’s world governing body dials back driver cursing penalties after major outcry

By Ben Morse, CNN

(CNN) — The FIA, motorsport’s world governing body, announced on Wednesday a major dialing back of the penalties issued to drivers for cursing after a groundswell of opposition towards the new regulations.

In rules introduced by the FIA ahead of the season, F1 drivers could be penalized – with monetary fines or loss of championship points – for cursing in press conferences.

Fines started at €40,000 ($41,600) for a driver’s first offense, with it doubling for a second breach of the rules as well as a suspended one-month ban. A third offense would potentially bring about a €120,000 ($125,000) fine, a one-month ban and the loss of championship points.

But the FIA scaled back those regulations on Wednesday after continued complaints from high-level F1 drivers.

Following the amendment of Appendix B in FIA International Sporting Code, the base maximum penalties for drivers will be reduced generally from €10,000 ($11,210) to €5,000 ($5,600) – a reduction of 50% – although “for FIA World Championships, where multipliers were involved, the reductions will be even more significant,” the governing body said.

The FIA also said that stewards can suspend a penalty in certain cases if it’s a first offense by a driver or team. Stewards will also be permitted to adjudge whether language was used in “controlled” or “uncontrolled” environments to assess whether a penalty is deemed necessary – a “controlled” environment is defined as a press conferences and an “uncontrolled” environment is a “spontaneous comments made by drivers or teams when on track or during a rally stage.”

The new guidelines also state that “abuse of officials will now result in sporting penalties rather than fines, aligning motor sport with other major global sports organizations.”

“As a former rally driver, I know firsthand the range of emotions that are faced during competition. I have led an extensive and collaborative review with contributions from across the seven FIA World Championships, FIA Member Clubs and other motor sports organizations,” FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem said.

“The improvements the FIA has announced today to Appendix B will ensure we continue to promote the best of sportsmanship in motor sport, while also giving Stewards effective guidelines to act against individuals who may bring the sport into disrepute. The FIA will always be committed to ensuring motor sport is accessible for all our sporting family.”

The original penalties implemented before this season were criticized by many F1 drivers who thought they were excessive. Drivers, including reigning world champion Max Verstappen, also complained about the lack of dialogue between them and the FIA around addressing any issues.

Ronan Morgan, president of the drivers’ committee, said that the changing of the rules around cursing “further strengthen the FIA’s International Sporting Code supporting our drivers by understanding the pressures they face during the heat of competition.”

“Drivers are looked up to as role models by young fans and are rightly seen as ambassadors for the wider world of motor sport, how they act really does matter but it is important to recognize that there is a difference between what is said during a race and in a press conference,” Morgan said.

The new rule that could force Kyle Larson to choose NASCAR over Indy

Kyle Larson is aiming to join a select group of drivers in completing the Indy 500/Coke 600 ‘Double,’ running both races on the same day this year. Only four drivers have ever done it and the last to successfully accomplish it was Kurt Busch back in 2014. But just as difficult as running the races themselves […]

Kyle Larson is aiming to join a select group of drivers in completing the Indy 500/Coke 600 ‘Double,’ running both races on the same day this year. Only four drivers have ever done it and the last to successfully accomplish it was Kurt Busch back in 2014.

But just as difficult as running the races themselves is balancing the two schedules between Indianapolis and Charlotte. That proved to be a major problem for Larson in 2024 as rain delayed the start of the Indy 500, forcing him to miss the start of the Coke 600. He made it there mid-race, but the same rain shower that delayed Indy ultimately ended the NASCAR race early, denying him a chance at becoming the fifth driver to complete the Indy-Charlotte Double.

While he was granted a playoff waiver that kept him eligible for the Cup title, NASCAR has since introduced a new rule that complicates things. They called Larson’s situation “uncharted waters,” and the new guardrails for playoff waivers will essentially force Larson to choose NASCAR over Indy, if faced with that decision again in 2025.

NASCAR has issued playoff waivers to drivers missing races for basically any reason in the past, including suspensions. And to remain eligible for the championship without a waiver, drivers have to attempt every race. Now, NASCAR will punish those who seek playoff waivers for non-medical reasons. Exceptions do include the birth of a child, a family emergency, age restrictions, or some other unique situations beyond the driver’s control.

If Larson misses the start of the Coke 600 because of Indianapolis again, he can still receive a waiver in 2025. However, that will now come with a price. Larson would forfeit all 23 playoff points he has earned so far in the 2025 season, which is more than anyone else in the Cup Series field. Drivers carry those valuable bonus points with them throughout the championship playoffs and they are critical in advancing forward through each round. Additionally, a driver will lose the ability to acquire any future playoff points for the remainder of the regular season as well, forcing a driver like Larson to start the 16-driver playoffs at zero.

Potential clash between Indy 500 Fast 6 and All-Star Race

Because of this, he cannot afford to stay in Indy if it overlaps with the start of NASCAR’s longest race in any way. However, this is not the only potential clash Larson will have to worry about over the next two weeks.

This weekend, the NASCAR All-Star Race starts at 8pm EST on Sunday, which could become an issue if Larson performs too well in Indy 500 qualifying. If he is fast enough to make the top 12 on Saturday, there won’t be a problem as those drivers will get out on track between 4:05pm and 5:05pm EST on Sunday. But if he’s good enough to get the Arrow McLaren Chevrolet into the Fast 6, he will be faced with a difficult decision. The Fast 6 takes place between 6:25pm 6:55pm EST., which doesn’t leave him much time to get back to North Wilkesboro in North Carolina.

The All-Star Race is an exhibition event, so Larson doesn’t have to worry about it impacting his playoff eligibility if he were to miss it, but even still, he has made it clear that NASCAR takes priority this year “no matter what.”

There is also the fact that if Larson were to miss the North Wilkesboro race, the No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports team won’t be able to compete without him as one’s entry into the All-Star Race is based on each individual driver’s eligibility (full-time drivers with All-Star wins, active Cup Series champions, race winners from the 2024/2025 seasons). Justin Allgaier will practice and qualify the No. 5 car, but he is not among those eligible to compete in the main event.

Speaking after Day 1 of Indy 500 practice on Tuesday, Larson said about a potential conflict between Indy 500 qualifying and the All-Star Race:  “Always for me and definitely for Rick [Hendrick] and Hendrick Motorsports, I think, no matter through this whole experience, especially this year, Cup should be the priority. Yeah, I just assume we’re going to run the All-Star Race no matter what.

“Hopefully we run into that predicament because that means our car is fast, and two, yes, it would be extremely nice to go for the pole at the Indianapolis 500, but at the same time, it’s hard to turn down an opportunity to race for a million dollars.

“Like I said, I hope we’re in that predicament.”

Larson is a three-time winner of NASCAR’s All-Star Race, earning the $1 million bonus in 2019, 2021, and 2023. Should he win it again this year, he will join Jimmie Johnson as the only four-time winner of the All-Star Race.

As Monty Python would say, “And now for something completely different.”

Drivers will practice entering and exiting the pits. Crews will practice, and compete, during what happens between that entrance and exit.

We’ll see heat races as well as something resembling the Last Chance Qualifier you get at the local short-track show.

But there will also be racing, and it’ll look rather familiar. Even the venue is starting to look familiar again. This is Year 3 for ancient North Wilkesboro Speedway to welcome NASCAR’s annual All-Star Race weekend. At five-eighths of a mile with a little bit of banking in the corners (14 degrees), it can be a racy little joint.

There will be plenty of opportunities to showcase that possibility over the next few days.

Friday: North Wilkesboro pit road is host to action

4 p.m.: Pit Road qualifying entry/exit practice (FS2).

5 p.m.: All-Star practice (FS2).

6 p.m.: Qualifying/All-Star Pit Crew Challenge (FS1).
