Piastri Secures Third Consecutive Victory at Miami Grand Prix

Oscar Piastri claimed his third consecutive Formula 1 victory at the Miami Grand Prix, leading a dominant one-two finish for McLaren ahead of teammate Lando Norris. Piastri surged from fourth on the grid, overtaking Max Verstappen, who started on pole, after Verstappen made a key mistake under pressure. Norris, after being forced off track by Verstappen at the start and falling to sixth, recovered to secure second place, further demonstrating McLaren's current superiority. George Russell finished third for Mercedes, benefitting from a Virtual Safety Car period that allowed him to overtake Verstappen, who ultimately finished fourth. The result extends Piastri's championship lead over Norris to 16 points after six races. The race was marked by several incidents, including early contact between drivers and a brief Virtual Safety Car due to Jack Doohan’s stoppage, but forecasted rain did not affect the main event.
