By Hannah Kennelly McLaren’s pace has been the talk of the season so far but during qualifying Red Bull champion Max Verstappen proved it’s still anyone’s game. Red Bull driver Max Verstappen.Credit: Getty Images The Dutchman – who recently welcomed his first child with partner Kelly Piquet – went fastest with a 26.204s lap, six six-hundredths clear of Norris who took too much kerb during his lap and had to settle for second. Meanwhile, Mercedes rookie Kimi Antonelli sits in third, an impressive feat following his pole position success in Friday’s sprint race qualifying session. Australian Oscar Piastri will start in fourth with George Russell in fifth. It’s been a mixed weekend for Piastri who finished second during the sprint race after a late safety car propelled Norris to victory. Piastri still leads the championship however there are only nine points between the two McLaren teammates. “I feel like I did everything right so a bit disappointed to come in second,” Piastri said after the sprint. “But that’s that’s how it goes sometimes. Unfortunately, racing’s a pretty cruel business so, hopefully, that means I get the luck for this afternoon and tomorrow. But another great start and I’m happy with what I did.” G’day early birds and thanks for joining us this morning. I’m Hannah and I’ll be steering today’s coverage of the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix in sunny Florida. Can Aussie Oscar Piastri further his championship lead and convert his fourth position in qualifying into another grand prix victory? Or will his teammate Lando Norris or pole-sitter Max Verstappen take the crown? It’ll be lights out for the race start at 6am AEST. Enjoy!
