F1 2023: how to watch Miami Grand Prix on UK TV - race start-times, circuit and live stream details

The first of three American Grand Prix takes place this weekend as the ten franchises return to Miami for a second year.

After a build-up of exceptional pomp and circumstance at last year’s Miami Grand Prix did not quite live up to the hype and expectation that was imagined. However, while this year could be relatively similar given Red Bull’s dominance, this weekend should see both Ferrari and Mercedes bring the first of the major upgrades to their car while McLaren will look to maximise on the upgrade they brought in last weekend.

In last weekend’s outing in Baku, Charles Leclerc enjoyed his first podium when he took third in Azerbaijan while McLaren’s Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri showed signs of promise. Sergio Perez won his sixth Grand Prix and continued his dominance on the street circuits. With another street circuit to prepare for this weekend, we could see a double-header win for the Mexican Red Bull driver.

Max Verstappen will hope to enjoy the success he saw in last year’s inaugural Miami race and while we may not see much competition from the rest of the drivers, the fiercest battles could well be between the two Red Bull teammates.
