Now in its fourth year, and entrenched as an important and massive event on the Miami event calendar, the 2025 Miami Grand Prix once again brings the heat, both on and off the track - with team activations, celebrity parties, and lots of fun in the sun. Building on last year's record-breaking attendance, when over 275,000 fans watched McLaren’s Lando Norris take his maiden Formula 1 victory, this year’s event brings with it the most wide open Formula 1 campaign in the race’s short history. McLaren’s Oscar Piastri hopes to add to his early season lead in Miami, with teammate Norris and 4-time defending Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen hot on his heels. Taking place from

The
Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix is held at the Miami International Autodrome built around Hard Rock Stadium. The campus is vast and filled with many areas to watch from.
