2025 Miami GP Circuit Details
The Miami International Autodrome presents a 5.412 km (3.363 miles) anti-clockwise street circuit and features 19 corners, combining technical sections with high-speed straights.
The track was resurfaced in 2023, offering increased grip as rubber builds up over the weekend, and three DRS zones located between Turns 10-11, 16-17, and the main straight, enhancing overtaking.
Pirelli has provided the Formula 1 teams with the C3 (Hard), C4 (Medium), and C5 (Soft) compounds, with the softer selection expected to influence strategy due to high track temperatures.
Miami’s subtropical climate suggests warm conditions with highs near 30°C. However, a 20% chance of rain on Saturday and Sunday could shift the competition.
2025 Miami GP Betting Picks
Oscar Piastri is leading the Fórmula 1 championship and is coming from back-to-back wins. Miami presents a new challenge with its sprint format, but his consistency and clean execution give him a real shot at extending the lead.
On the other hand, last year’s winner in Miami, Norris, thrives on fast-flowing street circuits. He’ll be desperate to regain ground on his teammate and remind the paddock that he’s more than just a number two in papaya orange, for good or worse, as we have seen him struggle with pressure in the past.
Another great contender is Max Verstappen, a two-time winner in Miami, who is chasing redemption after a penalty in Jeddah took away crucial points. If Red Bull nails the setup, we’ll see Max hunting for a win.
Charles Leclerc has a strong qualifying record and has been improving his race pace. Leclerc could be a threat, especially on Saturday’s sprint.
