MIAMI — Lando Norris won a chaotic sprint race in Miami ahead of McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri and Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton.
Norris emerged in front of his teammate after a fortuitous safety car timed right as he left the pits after swapping his intermediate wet tyres for slicks. That meant Piastri, who had led since muscling Andrea Kimi Antonelli out of the lead at Turn 1, had to slow at a crucial moment as he approached the start-finish line with four laps left.
The win will be a morale boost for Norris after losing the championship lead to Piastri at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix two weeks ago.
