Kimi Antonelli claimed his third straight Formula 1 victory at the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday, extending his lead in the world championship standings to 20 points over Mercedes teammate George Russell.
Race Highlights
The Italian driver, starting from pole position, overcame a fierce battle with McLaren's Lando Norris. Antonelli gained the advantage through a strategic pit-stop that allowed him to undercut Norris, securing the win.
The race was moved forward due to forecast thunderstorms. Early drama included a first-lap spin by Max Verstappen, who ultimately finished fifth, and a safety car period following a crash involving Pierre Gasly.
Podium and Key Performances
Norris, who won Saturday's sprint race, finished second and expressed disappointment about the pit-stop strategy. Oscar Piastri completed the podium in third place. Charles Leclerc experienced a late spin, dropping him to sixth, just ahead of Lewis Hamilton in seventh. George Russell made late gains to finish fourth.
