Excitement Builds for Miami Grand Prix: Verstappen Dominates, Sargeant Hopes for Homecoming Success, and Ticket Prices Revealed
The excitement is building as it’s officially race week in Miami for the Formula 1 Grand Prix. Max Verstappen has been dominating the season so far, starting from the pole in all five races and winning four of them. The only other driver to claim a victory this season is Carlos Sainz, who won the Australian GP.
Verstappen’s form has been particularly impressive at the Miami track, where he has emerged victorious in both 2022 and 2023. Last year, he finished five seconds ahead of Sergio Perez despite starting ninth. In the inaugural Miami race in 2022, Verstappen led 48 of 57 laps to secure the win ahead of the Ferrari duo of Charles Leclerc and Sainz.
American fans will be hoping to see local driver Logan Sargeant perform well in his homecoming race. However, Sargeant has struggled so far this season, with his best finish being 14th in four races.
For those looking to catch the action live at the Miami Grand Prix, tickets are still available on StubHub. Prices for a three-day pass start at $359, with grandstand tickets near the start-finish line priced at just under $500. For those seeking a VIP experience, The 72 Club offers a three-day pass for as much as $14,000.
The Miami Grand Prix is just one of three races that Formula 1 will host in the United States this season. The Florida race will take place in May, while races in Las Vegas and Austin will be held in the fall. With a total of 24 races on the 2024 F1 calendar, there are plenty of opportunities for fans to catch the action live.
