2023 Miami F1 GP Race Report
The Miami Grand Prix witnessed a flurry of strategic decisions, with Red Bull's Max Verstappen (P9) and Alpine's Esteban Ocon (P8) taking a bold move to start on the hard compound tyres while the top 7 drivers opted for the medium ones.
Verstappen's gamble paid off as he quickly moved up to P4 by lap 9, leaving Lewis Hamilton struggling on P13. Meanwhile, Logan Sargeant was the first to hit the pit after three laps to replace his front wing and get a new set of tyres..
By lap 15, Verstappen had already overtaken several drivers to secure P2 and now already was behind his teammate who was only 3.6 se. in front on the medium tyres.

Race leader Sergio Pérez pitted in lap 20 and relinquished the lead to Verstappen, who proceeded to set fastest lap after fastest lap. Fernando Alonso was still holding on to P2 in his Aston Martin, with Ocon securing P3.
Verstappen finally pitted at the end of lap 46 for the medium tyres, and returned to the track in second place, just 0.8 seconds behind Perez. Alonso was still holding on to P3, albeit at a considerable distance of 15.7 seconds, while Russell was fourth, 8.4 seconds adrift in P4.

Better than I expected & also better than the inaugural race.
Red Bull dominance at its best, but what a race for Mclaren.
I counted they got screen time three times after the early pit stops.
Leclerc’s struggle was weird, perhaps yesterday’s errors had some impact.
Well done Haas, as usual well done Rb and King G a nice 4th, Honestly though Ferrari, Mcl and Merc, do any of them know what they are doing? Yes Im a red bull fan , but we are talking how many WCC between the three and yet, very disappointing with seemingly no end to it.I still don't get Hondas decision , displays like this are a marketeers dream for the USA, mind you it was nice to see those Mini mokes transporting the drivers, a sixties or seventies motor , in 2023 , if Merc and Ferrari press releases and interview ,say yeah two cars in the points a good day today, they are fooling No One.......One noticeable this so far this year is just how reliable these cars are, I cant believe im saying it ,but i miss the occasional engine blow up, end up Max taught the grid another lesson today, Happy Days
