Antonelli Clinches Third Straight Miami GP Win, Extends Lead
Kimi Antonelli storms to pole and wins the Miami Grand Prix, extending his early-season championship lead as Norris and Piastri finish strong.
Kimi Antonelli clinched a third successive victory at the Miami Grand Prix, storming from pole to beat a late-charging Lando Norris and claim the win as Oscar Piastri finished third. The young Italian’s pace was evident from the start, and he held his nerve through a tense final stretch to secure the triumph.
Antonelli’s pole position underscored a weekend of strong front-running form, with upgrades and preparation translating into clear on-track advantage. The win also widened his advantage in the early-season standings, keeping the pressure on rivals as the championship picture begins to take shape. Mercedes showed signs of a rebound after a sprint race stumble, suggesting improvements are starting to take effect, though they weren’t enough to topple the leader in Miami.
Norris pushed hard in the closing laps, giving it everything to close the gap, but Antonelli remained composed and crossed the line ahead. Piastri completed the podium in third, rounding out a strong weekend for the younger generation in the field.
As the season unfolds, the Miami result adds momentum to Antonelli’s title bid and promises an increasingly competitive fight at the front as teams continue to chase upgrades and consistency in the races ahead.
