Max Verstappen also won the Miami Grand Prix sprint race, who played confidently, while Charles Leclerc came second with Ferrari. Sergio Pérez, who slipped back to fourth place shortly after the start, took third position – let’s see how the three evaluated them after the wave!
Max Verstappen (Red Bull) – 1. hely
“The start didn’t go well, so I had to push Charlie a bit, but luckily the first corner was already good. After the safety car phase, I gradually increased my advantage, but this race was not perfect. In the new shape we can change the car, so hopefully we can improve for qualification and the grand prix. There are things we need to discuss within the team. In China, the car was very easy to drive, but here there is room for improvement.”
Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) – 2nd place
“The start was good, I was on the inside at the first corner, but I didn’t want to take too many risks because the time trial was coming. If I had an accident here, I’m not sure I would be able to participate. So we broke quite late, but Max kept first place. I pushed hard, but in the first laps Max had a better pace. After that, the tires wore out equally. Tomorrow’s race will be long and it is important to start from the best position. I am confident that we can then put them under pressure with tactics. The sprint time trial was tight yesterday. We couldn’t try everything in practice, but now we did more laps and I hope we can aim for pole position.”
Sergio Pérez (Red Bull) – 3. hely
“The start of the race was difficult, but I passed Daniel (Ricciardo) relatively quickly. However, at that time I was already three seconds behind Charlie and I couldn’t get close to him. It was a tough race. But anyway, I’m already looking forward. The fans are great, it’s great to be here, so I hope I can give them a good weekend. I’m looking forward to the time trial, I hope we do well. “
