Err, we've actually got a bit of a race going on in Miami....

Lando Norris takes his first Grand Prix win and McLaren's first since 2021 at the Miami GP.

Maybe there's hope for F1 after all....

Apparently Trump was in attendance at the GP.
A report in the Washington Post stated that Trump had taken over part of the Paddock Rooftop Suite and was charging £250,000 to attend his event.
But the organisers put a stop to it s it broke their rules.

Let's hope he isn't allowed to to attend the open this summer

I bet he only charged £250,0000 just to help cover the costs for his defence team

He managed to worm his way into the McLaren Garage with Muhammed Bin Sulayem from the FIA, so...2 crooks together. Zak Brown didn't look overly impressed.

The Monaco GP produced a big surprise with the Red Bulls struggling.
Perez is down the field and Verstapphen in 6th.
The top two rows re full Ferrari's and McLarens.

So as the Red Bull's are under performing and it's difficult to overtake it's looking like we may have a winner who's not Verstapphen.

Question: Why was McLaren in yellow and not orange?

Did you hear on the commentary about the new apartments being built at the side of the track. Yours (per apartment) for 70 million euros.

^McLaren are using yellow/green/blue (think Brazilian flag) as a tribute to Ayrton Senna.
