Formula 1 returns after the enforced spring break with the Miami Grand Prix this weekend - and the second sprint race of the 2026 season.

Due to the cancellation of races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia because of the ongoing conflict in the Gulf, F1 was absent over April but, behind the scenes, teams were working hard to close the gap on Mercedes .

In addition, F1 and the FIA agreed on a set of tweaks to the controversial 2026 regulations.

Kimi Antonelli won the last race in Japan after benefiting from a well-timed safety car.

The Italian 19-year-old leads the world championship by nine points over Mercedes teammate George Russell , who was cut a frustrated figure at Suzuka in finishing fourth.
