Antonelli Takes Third Straight Win in Miami

The 19-year-old now holds a 20-point lead, signaling a real title run.

Overview

  • Antonelli won Sunday's Miami Grand Prix for a third consecutive victory, beating Lando Norris as Oscar Piastri took third to give McLaren a double podium.
  • The result moves the Mercedes rookie to 100 points and a 20-point lead over teammate George Russell, with Mercedes also leading the constructors’ standings.
  • A lap-six crash for Isack Hadjar and a separate Liam LawsonPierre Gasly clash that flipped Gasly brought out the race’s only Safety Car, and Gasly said he was okay after the rollover.
  • Antonelli seized back control with a mid-race undercut pit stop and then held off sustained pressure from Norris while managing a brief gearbox concern reported on team radio.
  • Stewards handed Charles Leclerc a 20‑second time penalty for leaving the track, dropping him to eighth, and they are still reviewing Max Verstappen’s pit‑exit line and late contacts involving George Russell.
