As the sun shines over the vibrant cityscape of Miami, anticipation is at an all-time high for the 2024 Miami Grand Prix, marking the eagerly awaited return of Formula One racing to the United States.

For the third consecutive year, the Miami GP promises to deliver heart-pounding action as the world’s premier drivers take on the challenging 3.363-mile circuit.

With local fans still buzzing from witnessing Max Verstappen’s dominance in the previous editions, the Red Bull powerhouse arrives as the formidable favorite once again, looking to extend his reign at the top.

His teammate Sergio Perez, fresh off a runner-up finish last year, looms as a potent threat, while Ferrari’sCharles Leclerc aims to shake off the tag of perennial bridesmaid and claim the coveted top spot.

Verstappen clinched his seventh consecutive pole position in Saturday’s qualifying session, signaling his intent to dominate from the front.

However, the Ferrari duo of Leclerc and Carlos Sainz, starting alongside him, are poised to pounce at the first opportunity, setting the stage for a gripping battle under the Miami lights.

Adding to the intrigue is the presence of seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, who finds himself languishing as a longshot in the betting odds but remains a potent force to be reckoned with.
