- Red Bull driver dominates 19-lap race; Charles Leclerc is second
- Fernando Alonso accuses Lewis Hamilton of ‘arriving like a bull’
Max Verstappen won the sprint race in Miami as Fernando Alonso accused Lewis Hamilton of “arriving like a bull” as they collided at the first corner. Verstappen controlled the 19-lap race – which was interrupted by an opening-lap safety car after Hamilton was involved in a coming together with Alonso – to claim a dominant win.
Charles Leclerc finished second for Ferrari with Red Bull’s Sergio Pérez third. RB’s Daniel Ricciardo started and finished an impressive fourth with Hamilton originally finishing eighth following a ding-dong battle with Kevin Magnussen. However, Hamilton was penalised for speeding in the pit lane, dropping him to 16th.
